Kids on Bikes - The Glow Stone Mystery Part 1

In the City of Undecided, a trio of teens are at the Glow Stone Strip Mall, as well as the owner/operator of the veterinarian office there. An attempted theft unites them as they investigate the strange goings on in town...

Kids on Bikes is a game of collaborative storytelling in small towns with weird goings on, by Jon Gilmour and Doug Levandowski.

Hauntrifiction - The Butler Estate

Walter Butler, a wealthy occultist, died in the process of a binding ritual. This was the intent, so he could continue the ritual... for 300 years. One of his descendants, Lamont Butler, is being tempted with selling the house for it to potentially be bulldozed. Walter's spirit will stop at nothing to save his home. With one weekend to do it, can he work Lamont and his friends to convince him to keep the home...?

Hauntrification, by Sylvia Gimenez, is part of Level 1 2023, a Silver Ennie award winning Free RPG Day anthology. It is available, still for free, at DriveThruRPG and at 9th Level Games' website.

Slasher Flick - 666 County Road 13 Take 2

A few years later, just in time for… All Saints Day, Brownie takes a new group, including Rina from The Old Ways, through a spin of his custom Slasher Flick scenario!

A group of TV Host & Reality Show Ghost hunters for a show called PhasnomeX, a subsidiary of PhenomeX, are invited to make an episode about a haunted house. The house was formerly a spiritual retreat made by an eccentric couple who dabbled in the occult. The cast and crew roll up to make the episode, but surely things will go fine...

Thanks again to Brownie for running for us. As a bonus, Brownie has graciously provided a ZIP file with a scenario guide, player handouts, and the primary and secondary characters! Rina as always can be found on The Old Ways Podcast and Ain't Slayed Nobody.

The Witch is Dead - The Tower

... well, Euthalia the witch is dead. The witch hunter killed her while her familiars were away. But there is still hope. If they kill the bastard and bring back his eyes, they can cast a spell to revive her. But can they hunt him down, and save her in time?

As a Grant Howitt RPG, this game is available on his itch.io page.

Orc Borg - Roter Zwerg Take 2

After last time, the intrepid orcs didn't really solve the problem of the Roter Zwerg having crashed into their ship. So, an old orc, a new orc, and an orc of questionable provenance adventure into the derelict to save their home, make it to heaven, and maybe inadvertently prove that love conquers all? Happy pride.

Orc Borg is a Mork Borg hack made by Grant Howitt for Rowan, Rook and Decard that seems to take liberties with a certain other fantasy future series. The book is available in PDF or physical from RRD's website. Roter Zwerg is an official dungeon for Orc Borg, also available in PDF from RRD's website. You can also generate your own Orc like we did using the Generatorc by Goblindustries and Orc Borg artist Rollinkunz on itch.io.
