subtitled Symbols, Spells, and Rituals for the Young Witch. While I’ve tried to slow down in my acquisition of Tarot and Oracle decks (I mean, really, how many does a person actually need?)(and don’t ask me how many I have, I’ve stubbornly stopped counting,) I was so pleased when this oracle deck, aimed at young …

Humblewood: Shock In Stormcrag by Jordan Richer & Verity Lane
I was so thrilled to finally be able to stop by my local friendly game store for Free RPG Day 2024 and snag a whole bunch of loot. While showing off my haul to my friends, one of my Space Gnomes on our Discord server asked, mischievously, if this meant that I would run the …

The Düngeonmeister Random Monster Generator: A Mix-and-Match RPG Flipbook by Jef Aldrich & Jon Taylor
I love getting all the Dungeonmeister game aids: they’re always a super fun and creative way to throw my Dungeons & Dragons players a curveball to help keep things fresh! This random monster generator was no different. It’s based on a very cool flipbook concept, where the bulk of the book after the first 25 …

Around The World In 50 Birds Jigsaw Puzzle by Mike Unwin & Ryuto Miyake
I recently surprised myself by doing exceptionally well in the Learned League’s Birds-themed Mini-League, held in the long-running online trivia game’s off-season. I finished second in my group, which qualified me for the finals, tho I ultimately turned in a middling performance in the championship quiz. Still, it was a pretty good showing for someone …

Magic The Gathering Oracle Deck by Adam Lee & Fred Gissubel
It was one of the nicest surprises of my reviewer life to receive this package, unsolicited, in the mail! Back when the American Library Association’s Annual Conference was held in DC two years ago, I was subcontracted by Wizards Of The Coast to run D&D games for librarians. As part of my experience, I got …

Keepers Of The Light: Oracle Cards by Kyle Gray & Lily Moses
A few weeks ago, I moseyed over to my favorite local bookstore for a free Tarot reading by the phenomenal Jane Prompeng. I was super intrigued by the way she incorporated Oracle cards into her readings, especially since the cards she pulled for me from this deck were so beautiful and, ultimately, meaningful. When their …
