Not DnD August 2024 Preview
Wednesday Aug 07, 2024
Wednesday Aug 07, 2024
Not DnD is a weekly show discussing tabletop roleplaying games. Each week EN Publishing’s @tabletopjess interviews the creators behind different tabletop roleplaying games that aren’t D&D!
You can watch the live recording every Monday at 5pm ET / 10pm BST on YouTube or Twitch, or catch up with the podcast platform of your choice by searching 'Not DnD'.
Here's the games we will be looking at in August 2024.
Jude’s World - 12th August
Jude's World, is a solo, tarot based journaling TTRPG in which a precocious preteen protagonist struggles to reunite their warring parents. The game both pays homage to and critiques "Parent Trap" style narratives while reveling in a 90s sitcom aesthetic.
Jude's World employs a traditional Rider-Waite tarot deck to generate story prompts as well as a 2d6 system for resolving Jude's attempts to rekindle the parents romance. Play through important milestones on Jude's journey into teenhood and explore their family's past through the keepsakes and knickknacks you uncover around their home.
A campaign on Kickstarter will launch in 6th August to fund a print run of the 32-page game, plus a companion workbook.
Horse & Rider - 19th August
Horse and Rider is a 2-player game about a horse rider taming, and forming a bond with, their horse.
One person plays the horse, the other the rider and each work together to form a bond over the course of six stages. Each stage draws from the techniques used to tame horses and are mechanically represented through a six-sided dice and three pieces of string or ribbon that are braided together. This mechanic was chosen as a way to represent trust between the two parties and draws from the history of horse riders braiding horse hair.
The crowdfunding campaign for the book print run was fulfilled in 2023, and is now available in PDF format on itch.
Era D10 - 26th August
The Era d10 Rule Set is a core ruleset which powers over ten games in different settings across the Era Universe. Each of the games has unique rules which affect the balance of that game. As the title outlines, the game uses a D10 dice pool.
The Era d10 Rule Set has been created to make the process of playing the game as simple as possible, while remaining representative. It is designed to be intuitive and to leave the choices in the hands of the Game Master. The goal is to reduce the time spent referring to the rulebook and increase the time spent having fun while playing!
