This weekend for PDX OSR Con we debuted Liminal Horror: Outbreak, a special convention module where three tables play different points of view of an outbreak event with the ability for some of the choices of the players to impact the other tables. It may have been my top favorite con experience.

a dungeon game by Chris Bissette the second edition of a dragon game

A Dungeon Game is here and it's free! (It's been both of those things for ages tbh)

Explore subterranean depths, face dragons, and discover what lurks beneath. It's classic dungeon crawling with modern design (i.e. it's good).
