Comfy late night, with a tea at hand and a new zine to read.
Hop on board people, it's time for another #aGivacaReadsRPGs thread, where I live tweet my impressions on ⭐A Complicated Profession⭐ Image Before opening its pages, let's get the context out of the way:
A Complicated Profession is a light-hearted, one-shot, GM-less game by @alwayscheckers where everyone plays the role of ex-bounty hunters that are now hosting intergalactic cruises.

This month I'm putting Everway aside for a while, so that I can focus on The Royal Cartographer for my #aGivacaReadsRPGs. Seems like I'll get to play it at Rolisboa this month, so it's time to give it a thorough look. The Royal Cartographer, wit... What is The Royal Cartographer? It's a worldbuilding and mapmaking game by @Listener13, GM-less or solo, where players represent different cultures that upon the arrival of the Royal Cartographer, need to struggle to be represented in the official map.

It's a sunny day, I have some free time, and several new RPGs to be read.
Sounds like #aGivacaReadsRPGs time.

The Shadow of Yesterday it shall be.

🧵 The Shadow of Yesterday book Happy to see Fritz Leiber mentioned as one of the influences. I really like his stories, and he isn't mentioned as often as he should.

Also, really interesting to see a game that states exactly which previous RPGs inspired which mechanics.

2/x

Some time to spare and good weather, this means I finally get to page through the print copy of @GregStolze's Million Dollar Soulmate, a game of romantic uncertainty.
