Ben just added a free demo to the preview page! As a fellow tarot-game sicko, you gotta check this out. A really sick GMless game that sits in that beautiful space between board games and TTRPGs. Angels stopping humans from defiling heaven is as dope a premise as you can get. #ttrpg

Now they pour into the firmament, the labyrinth we built to keep them out. Stop them. The Firmament: A tarot ttrpg of divinity and desperation, coming Fall 2026.
I did say I liked it once, and then many times after that. I'll say it again now. Just a really nice one-shot which nails its twist.

Public Domain Art is the lifeblood of small tabletop rpgs, but it can be a nightmare trying to find the right art and license. This week, I’ve re-uploaded my old list from 2020 (with updates) of public domain websites. That's 500,000+ public domain paintings, photos, maps, and film. Link below 🔗👇

If you like tarot, esoteric magic, or Ted Chiang's "Tower of Babylon" short story, this game is for you. I was really impressed with Ben's design when I playtested it!

I playtested this beautiful and emotionally fucked up game. Wonderful. Five stars. Go back it.
