No, it's not a roleplaying system, --- it's a roleplaying game! in fact, it's two role playing games! ---- no even more than that, it's three of them!
First off, the Chronicles of Arborell gamebook site have launched their new text edition of the torchlight tabletop game. This is an expantion upon the general gamebook principle, using paragraphs of text, random number tables and an entirely new xl page map system to create a randomly generating dungeon full of traps, treasure and danger!
the only bad news to report is that some nutter called Dark was apparently involved in beta testing this, ---- but don't let that put you off, it's a fantastic game. You can read more about it onthe newly updated Chronicles game index page or go directly to The Chronicles website found here to begin.
further dungeonus things can be found in the newly updated version of Entombed, see index Featuring quite a bit of bug squashing pluss hopefully fewer deaths in the jaws of those cute litle puppy dogs known as dire wolves. Not all bugs have been squashed, but hopefully this should improve matters, ---- and if you haven't tried any of the alpha 9 versions ofthe gae yet, --- what're you waiting for!
Finally, it's not just dungeons tombs and other dark smelly underground places where you can find monsters, ---- nor are all monsters evil.
Witness the new online monster breeder rpg game, ---- another find by Bladestorm. Here, the evil monsters even do your bidding as you encourage them to work, wander the huge world map challenging other creatures to fights, engage in quests, home improvement or even batle other players. This is a very balanced game with many things to do, ---- and a very enthusiastic developer who's adding both access improvements and more features to the game continually. Check out Monster breder's shiny new game index page or jump streight to the game's own website found here and get playing!
Our souls with high music ringing; O men! It must ever be
That we dwell in our dreaming and singing, A little apart from ye. (Arthur O'Shaughnessy 1873.)
