A few weeks ago I released the Player Play Test Packet for Claustrophobia on DriveThruRPG. It’s a great free little gift you can pass on to players when you’re running a game of Claustrophobia.
Of most interest are the four pregenerated characters, as previewed a few weeks ago. You’ll also get a questionnaire to help with the play test, as we approach the middle of 2014 and start putting the final version of the game together.

I think you’ll agree, this is epic! With Don’s art and the fiction I’m writing for the book, this looks set to be a proper role-playing game that we can all be proud of. And that means you too, I’d love you to join the effort; download the game, play it and give me feedback (details in the book), or buy a print from Redbubble and show us your support. All play testers will be credited in the book, which is a great opportunity for you to build some rep in the RPG industry. Also, any money we make now gets pumped right back into the game, so when you buy something you really are helping us make the game more awesome!
I love creative role-playing design competitions, like the One Page Dungeon Contest. They’re a great way to push the creative envelope and get work out there for the world to see. I’ve just finished work on my gnome-tastic RPG of subterranean mayhem for the 1KM1KT 24 Hour RPG Competition.
Of course, a competition like this one calls for some out of the box thinking because, as was the case in this years competition, the box was literally and figuratively rather small… Continue reading Claustrophobia! – 1KM1KT’s 24 Hour RPG Contest 2012→
