DUNGEON OF THE VERY EVIL WIZARD! - funded in 5 seconds! - ft a Pacific garbage patch of plastic minis! - unreconstructed fantasy tropes! - probably problematic artwork! - 100 years of campaign time! - guaranteed to be 24 months late! & it’ll raise $3.4M & never be heard of again

Whilst we’re on a British 80s game tip, have to say we’re quite taken by the covers for the upcoming 40th anniversary @fightingfantasy books from @ian_livingstone & @stevejacksonuk (and the first since 1986 from Mr Jackson I believe!)…
