This week I will break my usual pattern, and cover this Monday's bundles as well as last Monday's. I am looking forward to some time off and travel over the next few weeks, and the way everything falls I won't be posting next week for sure, and likely not on May 5 either. We'll see. Maybe I get to it before the end of the day, but maybe not. I'll catch up after that. See you all then!


Bundle of Holding
:kF::ki::kr::ks::kt:<< these are the links Runs from 4/13/2026 to 4/30/2026
The first bundle this week is the Perilous Void bundle, collecting system neutral tools for Sci-fi RPGs. 🎵Life forms...you precious little life forms...where are you? do do do do do!🎵

This single tier bundle is priced at $8, and includes The Perilous Void, with a bunch of tables full of systems, worlds, lifeforms, and all that. Everything you need to ad lib some Star Trek, or whatever your game of choice is. Also included is Holdfast Stations, a low-prep game of survival on a remote station.

:kS::ke::kc::ko::kn::kd: Runs from 4/15/2026 to 4/29/2026
The next bundle is a revival of the Fellowship bundle, which I covered here. If you missed it last time, now's your chance to employ the Apocalypse Engine to defeat a terrible threat from destroying the world!

:kT::kh::ki::kr::kd: Runs from 4/20/2026 to 5/5/2026
I have been covering bundles Monday-Sunday lately, but I'm traveling for a bit, so might as well get this one covered! This game has gotten some good word of mouth on Discords I'm a part of, so that's exciting! But you don't have to take my word for it, it also won ENines for Best Family Game, Best Monster/Adversary book, and Best Production values.

So what is it? It's a kid friendly game of fantasy hijinks and derring-do. It sounds charming, so check it out!

This single tier bundle costs $18, and includes The Land of Eem core book, quickstart, Mucklands Sandbox Campaign setting (a hexcrawl sandbox), Bestiary V1, Adventures in Muckland, and the Muckland Book of Random Encounters.

Fanatical
:kF::ki::kr::ks::kt: Runs from :?block: to 6/2/2026
I'm not sure when this one dropped, but it is pretty new bundle listing. I also don't know this game. It is apparently over 30 years old, originating from GDW before bouncing around to a few publishers. It is apparently a near-future dystopia, from Fanatical's description, but that's about what I know.

Things are moving slow, but I'm still learning and upping my social media game. Instagram seems to have lots of boradgamers. No idea if any of my efforts are working. I'm also trying not to make a nuisance of myself 😜.

In the meantime, both Fireworks for the 4th & Pumpkin Spice & Everything Nice have passed their Community Verified Tests over on the Game Crafter! Wahoo! Now both are at least eligible for site-wide promotions and such.

Also... I didn't get a yay or nay from Game Crafter regarding Eight Elephants being eligible or not for the Feathers, Fur & Fun Contest or not. It's new to Game Crafter, but not new... as the time was ticking down, I entered it anyway with the caveat that I'd pull it if they decided it wasn't eligible... so... for now anyways... Eight Elephants is in! To celebrate and maybe to boost sales too... I'm running a sale on Eight Elephants!

From now 'til May 1st, you can pick up the PNP for $3.99 (regular price $4.99) or the print-on-demand game for $17.99 (regular price $18.99).

Elephants rule!

I'm also working hard on revising the graphics for Abydos. What I'm doing and learning will then inform how I move forward with Charge the Circle & Nine Tails. Ideally, I want all 3 up and for sale before Christmas. Sooner would be better, but I'm also trying to be more realistic. Pie in the sky is great. Pie on the table is better.

I'm also back to playing with Bears love Bows while working on both Put a bow on it! and Last Leaves. I don't know what I want to do for Bad Comet's Cozy Contest, but I need to commit to a path...soon...

Anyway, the only play I got in today was for my newest 54-card game Time's up!... and... it didn't go well. I broke the game on the first physical playtest and the second didn't go well either. That said, I do think there's something here :whistle:

Happy Monday and happy playing!
