  1. ÉPISODE 1

    Tabletop Tutorial | i'm sorry did you say street magic? with Dan Bronson-Low (Almost Bedtime Theater)

    A new series?! I hope so! I'd love to make this concept for a monthly episode happen, so if you have a game that you're itching to play but have no one to play it with, please email me at reneplaysgamespod@gmail.com !   For the very first Tabletop Tutorial I'm joined by Dan Bronson-Lowe of Almost Bedtime Theater, a podcast of a father and daughter (and her cousin) who learn and play TTRPGs together. You may also know Dan as the creator of the Crit Award winning solo TTRPG The Librarian's Apprentice or his other games you can find on his itch.io page.   We sit down to play i'm sorry did you say street magic? by Caro Asercion, which is an incredible city-building game derived from games like Microscope by Ben Robbins.   By the end, we build a pretty awesome little city built around a strange natural incursion into an infinite library as part of Dan's upcoming Song of the Scryptwyrm Backerkit campaign for Pocketopia! So if you like what you hear, go sign up to be notified when it goes live and get a copy so you can play in this endless library! ----more---- If you haven't but you'd like to, get yourself some stickers or give me some feedback by filling out my poll here.   I made a Ko-Fi if you feel absurdly generous and want to help cover podcast hosting costs & all the upkeep. I'm still working on whether I want to offer anything special over there or just give my extreme gratitude (maybe some stickers or something in the mail) to those who donate, but no pressure whatsoever :)   Where to Follow Rene Plays Games: LinkTree |  BlueSky | Threads | Instagram | Facebook | DMs After Dark MECH | One Last Quest email: RenePlaysGamesPod@gmail.com   Music in the Episode: Evenfall by Vindsvept Theme Song written & produced by Dan Pomfret | @danfrombothbands

    Tabletop Tutorial | Hunt(er/ed) with Troy from DMs After Dark

    Join the DMs After Dark discord!   Tabletop Two-torial! It's the second episode of this two-player "learn a game together" series and this time I'm joined by Troy from the DMs After Dark for a game of Hunt(er/ed) by Meghan Cross & Dillin Apelyan of the One Shot Podcast Network! Hunt(er/ed) is a game of a hunter and a monster, and the back and forth in the game of life and death between them. The mechanics are SO fun and involve literally racing to try and roll doubles on dice faster, and then consulting prompts from a deck of cards which deepen the meaning behind the hunt with each step forward and back, coming closer or letting your prey slip between your fingers...   We had a blast with this game and I totally recommend it! Hope you enjoy!   Content Warnings: Language, descriptions of death, nightmares, and guilt.   Also, the Monument Studios folks are about to launch their Fantasy+ tabletop audio app after their successful Kickstarter, so I used music from their catalog for this episode to show you how you can use their library to improve your games! Go check it out! ----more---- If you haven't but you'd like to, get yourself some stickers or give me some feedback by filling out my poll here.   I made a Ko-Fi if you feel absurdly generous and want to help cover podcast hosting costs & all the upkeep.

    [Bonus] 2025 Designologue

    I've heard people like this, so here's an update on some of the games I've got rattling around in my brain, in GoogleDocs, and in various levels of development on notebook pages, sticky notes, and half formed notes on my phone.   If any of these sound like they're games you'd love to play, please let me know so I can get on it and see if I can't put out something you'll love!   Looking forward to working on these more & hopefully hearing from all of you. May all your games go great! ----more----   Join the DMs After Dark Discord channel!   2 New MECH Cities Out Now (& Free!)   I made a Ko-Fi if you feel absurdly generous and want to help cover podcast hosting costs & all the upkeep.

  5. BONUS DE L’ÉPISODE 14

    [Bonus] The Witch Is Dead

    It's spooky month 2025, and that means bonus episodes! They can be Halloween-y, generally spooky, or related to common tropes of the season, but this year it's kicking off with a one-shot of The Witch Is Dead by the incomparable Grant Howitt!    The Witch Is Dead is a one-page RPG by the master of the one-pager about a kind and good witch who is brutally and unfairly MURDERED by a witch-hunter! Luckily, you are the cute woodland animals this wonderful witch taught some spells, and she told you to avenge her death and bring her killer's eyes to her body within one week so she may be resurrected. Will our chaotic crew be able to pull it off?!   Go get Grant's excellent games, support his Patreon, and if you're feeling really creative, he's currently hosting the One Hundred One Page Games Jam over on itch, where you can combine two of his absurd one-page RPGs into one game and submit it for folks to play! So do it!   ----more---- Join the DMs After Dark Discord channel!   I made a Ko-Fi if you feel absurdly generous and want to help cover podcast hosting costs & all the upkeep.
