The Unburied release!


I have just released The Unburied! This is a game that I first wrote a few years ago essentially as a test for some of my ideas that came out of me getting into FKR. 

It's a medieval-set, vampire hunting game, that is kind of part murder mystery, part community drama. The best sessions I have ever run were part of playtesting this game, and they still represent what I consider "my style" of running more than anything else I have ever done. 

I was inspired to tidy it up and give it a simple release as part of the Literary Jam hosted by Snow. This game is not the best example of my writing (I think the FEUD is much better written and more sophisiticated) but it is my starting point for designing games that I think do fit some kind of "literary" definition. If you want to see my working definition for literary RPGs you can do so here: https://thewyrd.blot.im/what-is-a-literary-rpg

I am going to write about this in a bit more detail in a blog-post that I will share here when I have written it. 

The WYRD LANDS update. I just wanted to add for those who have downloaded or are interested in the Wyrd Lands - I do have stuff that I have worked on and basically is ready to be shared, at least digitally for now. My issue is that I always get cold feet before sharing anything and so procrastinate away from doing anything that puts the product in productivity. 

I am hoping to start with a version of the core system called The Wyrd System. Again it's all written up I just need to press a few buttons. Hopefully I will do inside a couple of weeks.
