Jason Glover's Fun and Approachable Adventures-in-a-Tin

On the Table: Tin Helm by Jason Glover of Grey Gnome Games. It's a solo dungeon-crawl adventure that comes ready to play in a tin about the size of a pack of cigarettes — and benefits greatly from Glover's crisp illustrations and visual design instincts. Charge through rooms, fight a small roster of creeps, get some handy items and find three Shards (or not get killed) before the end of the fifth level. Check out homeboy's catalog of small-format creations.

On the Radar: Just found out Denver comedian Andrew Orvedahl designs indie tabletop roleplaying games under the banner of Occupied Hex. If you want a vivid snapshot of the creative breadth of TTRPGs beyond the Big Obvious Dragon Franchise, take a look at his designs: You can scrabble for resources in the bleak gaspunk world of Dusters, imagine life as a stray animal in the rules-lite Streets or evade a ravenous shark in CHUM.

On the Website: Episode 63 of Breakup Gaming Society is live. Meet the first three characters I created for this hilariously grim role playing game set in a bleak and hellish version of the Old West.
