Recently indie ttrpg creators have been told to "get loud" about our work. So in response here's a collection of some of my favourite indie games that more people should play and know about. They are gorgeous, they are novel, and they take no time at all to learn, set up, and play.

If we want more and better roleplaying games, if we want new worlds to imagine and a better world here, let's start by supporting artists with our time and our money, and listening when they speak.

Because we are loud about our games every single day. We are not "wringing our hands" we are creating beautiful and awe-inspiring worlds, and clever rules to navigate them, all while asking for far less time and money than companies with a thousand times our scope and capacity. In this bundle you will find games so good no corporation could possibly create them.

This bundle represents a small fraction of the games and creators I have found and loved in the TTRPG space as I have worked here for the last 6 years. Buy the bundle, follow some of the artists, and see all the other things they have made and ways you can support them. We split all the profits evenly between us.

The Creators and Their Games

Michael Elliott put this together. You can follow him on Bluesky and check out his upcoming games: Blood & Tears and Escape the Kronos. You can also support him and his work, like making these bundles, by subscribing to him on Patreon. He provided some of his most popular games: A Torch in the Dark, Neon Black, and World Maker.

Thursday Garreau provided HARDCASE, a modular single player game of survival on a space station with evocative tables of online weirdos, novel cigarettes, and greasy vending machines you frequent in order to survive each day.

Calum Grace gave us Deep in a Matrix of Flesh & Metal, Long Strange Way Home, and Abkronos. Calum is a master of dark scifi and cyberpunk, and Abkronos is one of the smartest games about time travel I have ever seen, and it fits on just 3 pages.

Ema Acosta made Crescent 2E, a follow up to their original fantasy game where you play as kids having adventures in dreamscapes. If you ever wanted something lighter and more narratively impactful than D&D, this is the one for you. And if you want something darker about teens escaping a nightmare, you should check out Exile. They also made the incredible header art for this bundle!

Galen Pejeau made Draw! and Stormchasers. Galen was one of the first indie ttrpg creators I followed, and I am always thinking about their game of cyberpunk emergency medical techs called CRASH//CART, also featured in this bundle.

A Couple of Drakes are a powerhouse of indie design, and their solo game Skyworthy is a great example of their colourful work.

Sandy Pug Games provided Monster Care Squad and The Final Gods of the Lost Belle, an adventure game inspired by the Dark Souls series that you play using social media. 

Speak the Sky has been doing incredibly important work in the TTRPG space, providing much needed fonts to illustrate clocks, dice, card suits, and more. These tools have helped make hundreds of games, so I included 2 of theirs: Like Skyscrapers Blotting out the Sun, and This Person Should not Exist, a wildly inventive game about finding and containing paranormal entities within the "Where's Waldo?" picture books. 

Allison Arth gave us Gentleman Bandit, a solo game of frontier storytelling where you make a poem as you play. I have yet to play anything like it.

Nick Bate made Stealing the Throne, an exciting one-shot game about stealing a mech in an elaborate heist. Did you have some folks bail on game night? Play this instead. 

Rufus Roswell provides Together We Write Private Cathedrals, a beautifully sad asynchronous game for 2 players about secret queer love hidden in words and letters.

Momatoes made The Marvelous Children of Inang-Uri and The Magus, another sad and beautiful single player game about being a powerful wizard.

Emanoel brings many things from his cabinet of curiosities like the roguelike solo card game Escape From Station 52, the colourful Dodecahedrax, and the Adventure Bookmark, which is all you need to play your collection of Fighting Fantasy gamebooks. 

Edda Mendes brings her custom card making game: Collectible Trading Moon Game, which I found just recently and immediately fell for. Keep an eye out for her at local events/zine fairs if you’re in Northeast Ohio, and you should check out the 6th annual Valid Games Jam, her definitely real and extremely serious event which begins February 1st.

Austin Ramsay provided some forged in the dark games every fan of the system should have in their collection: Beam Saber and The Pack. You can also follow her on Bluesky and Tumblr. 

Tanya Floaker brings her games Be Seeing You and Lo! Thy Dread Empire, which is the necromantic anti-capitalist tactical game you have been waiting for. 

Briar Sovereign brings her games Case and Soul, and The Brightest Things We Know, a unique forged in the dark game for all you Destiny sickos. You should also follow them on Bluesky.

Elliot Davis included Project ECCO, a brilliant solo journaling game that utilizes a day planner to let you tell a story of harrowing time travel.

Binary Star Games gave us Trespasser for all you The Zone/Roadside Picnic sickos, and Apocalypse Frame for all you big robot combat sickos. 

Laurie O’Connel included To Honour and Obey and Death Game, the must have follow-up RPG for your recent Squid game rewatch/binge watch.

Being an indie creator is hard and thankless. We make things because we cannot help but be artists, and we are met largely with silence, and with large games sites wringing their hands about view counts and click throughs when we ask for attention. We are expected to compete with companies who pay salaries to public relations people, who have marketing budgets and teams of artists, when all we have is a social media account, a mailing list, and the occasional crowdfunding campaign. 

We are not saved by these companies, but by other small indie groups. By sites like Rascal who make game announcements easy, and the people who make YouTube channels and podcasts who play and read our games and let their fans know we exist. We are saved by people, not companies.

So if you buy the bundle, if you post about it on social media, or your work’s Slack channel, or write the link on the wall of the bathroom in that cool queer dive bar you like, thank you.

We can’t keep doing this without you.
