Four sample spreads of ninja goodness. One shows a Charlie's Angelsesque intro to ninja generation and a sweet mountain drawing that uses typographical chicanery to make it even artier. Other spread shows a pile of bodies and a sweet ninja standing over it with the rules for making your ninja even more badass (leveling up). The third spread is some business dork looking over a city as a helicopter launches fucking missiles at him and three ninjas leap in for the kill. It's the intro page to the awesome Secret Ninja Mission Generator we provide. The final spread is an example of the enemies you might face, a Fuckin' Cop and a Mindless Robot Warrior.

Every Villain Is a Loser A comedic TTRPG for the henches, minions, lackeys, & goons.

So It Goes Before he became a famous author, over a decade before Slaughterhouse-Five, Kurt Vonnegut was a board game designer. A failed board game designer, with only a sheaf of notes, a single rejection note, ...

GHQ is Kurt Vonnegut's lost board game, unstuck in time and transported from 1956 to 2024 thanks to Geoff Engelstein, and it's surprising how familiar it feels despite occupying an entirely different medium from Vonnegut's novels. My review: spacebiff.com/2024/09/25/g...

Was flooded with endorphins when I received the news that my art book Art By Nohr got nominated for the Swedish Design Prize. My book about me and my weird art, considered for an award of this magnitude. I have few personal milestones and goals as a designer but this sure is one.

Congratulations Johan. That’s incredible!!

Rules of Play by Katie Salen and Eric Zimmerman is excellent. Huge, heavy book (in every way), but comprehensive. Not exclusively tabletop, but still relevant imo.

I enjoyed Fishing Lessons from the same designer. How was Sky Team? Seems to have been well received to date.

What are your first impressions of The Last Lighthouse?
