August 2025

This issue of a monthly fantasy roleplaying zine continues the exploration of the area surrounding Dry Gulch. It includes two mini-dungeons: one occupied by a malevolent giant spider and doppelganger spies, and another centered on a forgotten shrine to a dead godling now used as a lair by various creatures. The issue also includes a preview of an upcoming retroclone roleplaying game.
