  • What's your favourite paper?

    For printing, recycled uncoated. For everything else, fountain-pen-friendly papers like Rhodia and Leuchtturm.

  • What's your favourite binding?

    Coptic binding! But for commercial purposes, saddle-stitched/stapled.

  • How did you get started in games?

    After years of playing and running D&D, I came across the Caltrop Core SRD, had an idea for a mechanical system to combine with it, and never quite stopped having ideas after that!

What's your favourite game on our store?

It's a game unlike any other I've seen, plus it gets you to engage with all those stickers you've been too afraid to use - what's not to like?
