Advanced Dungeons and Dragons on the Intellivision held some mystic for me when I was a kid. First of all when I was little Dungeons and Dragons had a weird aura of danger and mystery surrounding it thanks to all the weirdos who thought it could lead you into Satanism.

When one thinks of role playing games, the first thing you probably think of is Dungeons and Dragons if you’re a non-geek. These days there’s still a few role playing games around, but not like it was back in the day. Back in the 80s and into the 90s there was a wide variety [...]

I’m an avid tabletop gamer, which means that Dungeons & Dragons and various board games tend to feed my gaming cravings over, say, hours of letting my hands go numb while playing my PS3. Rolling the dice, for me, is the way to go – I love the element of chance.

Hey kids, I know we talked about Star Munchkins and the Space Ships expansion on our Gaming Bonisode #1, but in case you didn’t listen to it (shame on you!), Wallace was nice enough to write up a review for the blog.

Shadowrun is a roleplaying game set in a post apocolyptic future that features high technology and magic. You can tell that the technology in Shadowrun is far beyond [...]
You're doomed, fancy armor man! Doooomed!
I really enjoy the occasional RPG video game, it’s hard to beat the kind of feeling an RPG gives you when your a bad ass cracking orc heads. Since I detest Japanese RPGs, I’m limited to Western based games simply because I love their more open-ended nature. That, [...]
One of my favorite “board games” of all time is HeroQuest. I put those stupid quotes in the previous sentence to emphasis the fact that the game isn’t as much of a board game as it is a halfway point to the wondrous world of tabletop RPGs and board games. I never really had [...]
I’ve finally managed to fully embrace my geek/nerd hood by playing a couple of instances of a pen and paper roleplaying game. By that I mean, I played the Star Wars RPG without the assistance of a video game controller. I realize that you might be surprised by this revelation. My legions of fans [...]
