Our Hobby Is Dying!
This is a claim we all have heard before. I am pretty sure that this notion first started just weeks after D&D was first released. For some reason people all over the world...
Games I’ve Played
Recently my friend Roberto posted on Twitter about all the games he has played over the years. Including the various D&D editions, he has played over 70 different games in his gaming career...
Dark Fantasy
These days having to wait for things feels so old fashioned! I have grown used to pdf rulebooks and if I want something I can have it right now. For years now I...
ANCIENT WORLDS: ATISI
Well, my weekend plans went slightly sideways, but in a good way, when I was offered the advance review copy of ANCIENT WORLDS: ATISI. There are details of the crowd funding campaign for this...
Where is the FUDGE Fantasy?
I am rather taken with the FUDGE system. It is a long way removed from my usual mainstay of Rolemaster but reading the Ghost Ops quickstart and Early Access booklets was a real...
5th Edition Session Zero
Yesterday evening my players and I met to speak about D&D 5th Edition, the Tal’Dorei setting, and eventually create their characters. I was actually surprised how much thought the players have already put...
Long Silence!
It is a long time since I have posted anything here or even commented for that matter. I have not abandoned Stargazer’s World, I have just been exceptionally busy. Several weeks ago I...

Kickstarter: Nothing Stays Forgotten
Recently Kendel Ventonda contacted me and let me know about the “Nothing Stays Forgotten” Kickstarter project. The roleplaying game has already been released in German under the name “Die Vergessenen Chronicles” a while...
Excited about D&D again!
I made the mistake of looking closer into Matthew Mercer’s Critical Role videos. If you haven’t been living under a rock you probably have heard about Critical Role already. In this series of...
Destiny As A Tabletop RPG?
Since it was first announced I was intrigued by the universe portrayed in the Destiny video games. It’s set into the future long after the golden age of humanity. This golden age started...
Most Excellent 7th Sea Adventures
I heard there is is to be a third Bill & Ted movie this week so I just had to use the ‘Most Excellent’ phrase 🙂 I have been quiet for nearly a...
What Am I Playing Right Now?
Since my GM hiatus started back in June 2017, I used the opportunity to play in as many games as possible. For a very long time I was basically the go-to GM for...
World of Dungeons: Turbo–Breakers
Wow. That’s a mouthful. The long name is especially funny when you realize that the rules of the roleplaying game with that name is just 4 pages long. And the last page consists...

Since I started this blog almost 10 years ago, a lot of fellow RPG bloggers have stopped blogging or moved their activities from their blog to social media. I am quite active on...
