I'm jealous of all these posts with lists of games played this year. How do you find these games? Online? It's hard to get people playing anything other than contemporary D&D around here.

Lord of the Flies. I didn't know what it was about. I had a similar childhood shock with Full Metal Jacket on late night HBO.

Slimes and jelly in bathrooms. It just makes sense.

Second the Black Hack for new players or new to OSR. It is simple and easy to explain.

Whatโ€™s an OSR game? People keep asking me what an OSR game is. They want a clear mechanical difference, like the one they think exists between Forged in the Dark and Powered By The Apocalypse, for example. Youโ€™rโ€ฆ

In case folks missed it the first time around, here is @idlecartulary.itch.io's excellent breakdown of the current state of the OSR.

A picture from a scene in the film Conan the Barbarian (1980). Arnold Schwarzenegger as the title character is crucified. He is biting the neck of a vulture that was pecking at him. The picture is captioned happy Thanksgiving.

Hey DMs / GMs, friendly reminder that there's absolutely nothing stopping you from sending your players to the Elemental Plane of Teeth.

Just remember to include a mouth-shaped hole in your campaign setting and the rest should take care of itself!
