I got a chance to playtest this on Sunday (though it was described to me as "humans should never go into a cave" rather than "the deepest dark")

Honestly one of the most heartfelt games I've ever played, and a real lovely close to a week of gaming with friends

A woman in a skullduggerously glamourous outfit lounges sideways on a throne. The throne is old and beautifully carved, but covered in spiderwebs and decorated with skulls and bones. The woman grins at the viewer, hand lit in bright green magic that brightens the dark room. Her green crystal familiar floats above the throne, pointed arms glinting with the same magic as his mistress. Her speech bubble reads "Well well well! Looks like it's MINA'S turn now."

This'll be the last time I share it, but there's ~a day left on my friends' Journeymon kickstarter, and I really can't overstate how much fun I've had with it

Obviously part of it is the monsters - love to invent a little guy - but the episode generation is a big part of what makes it sing, for me.

Another monster tamer TTRPG has arrived on Kickstarter! I always love seeing other takes on the genre, and Creature Capture Cards looks like a lot of fun! :D
