Tabletop Journeys

Tabletop Journeys

Friends for much longer than any of them care to admit, your three hosts bring extensive RPG experience from even before they met. For almost 100 years combined, they have played in and ran tabletop and live action games of every stripe. Since then, they have discussed, argued, kibitzed, broken down, built up, rearranged, and dissected every imaginable topic, frequently in living rooms in front of horrified onlookers who couldn't get a word in edgewise. The Tabletop Journeys project started as friends wanting to get together over Zoom to talk about the games they were running, they stuff that they had bought, and things that they thought were cool. And now, we hope that you do too!

    Windowboxing: How to Turn Any Published Adventure Into YOUR Campaign with Dr. Homebrew (Episode 281)

    Ever run a published module and felt like it just... didn't fit your world? Dr. Homebrew is back with a concept he's been sitting on for a while. He is talking about "Windowboxing", a framework for taking prewritten adventures and reshaping them into something that feels 100% homebrew, without rewriting the whole thing from scratch. 🧙‍♂️✨ In this episode, Josh breaks down the full Window Boxing framework: 🎯 The Threshold. Rewriting the hooks so your players enter on your terms 🎭 The Cast. Swapping in NPCs your table already has history with 🧵 The Throughline. Turning module content into real evidence for your campaign arc 🏁 The Resolution. Why the ending matters more than the entrance Plus, the difference between cosmetic vs. structural changes, the failure states every DM needs to watch for (looking at you, over-boxing 👀), and real examples pulled straight from Tabletop Journeys' own actual plays including how Arch Enemies wove Candlekeep Mysteries into a Westmarches-style campaign, and the cautionary tale of trying (and failing) to cram Rime of the Frostmaiden's Cave of Horrors into a homebrew world. If you've ever wanted to run a module and make it feel like it was written just for your table, this episode is your blueprint. 🎲🔥 💬 Drop a comment: What adventure have YOU window-boxed into your home game?
