Niche Games, Weird Systems
Rich homebrew
We love to play games, that’s why we’re in this business. And homebrew is a natural extension of that. Sometimes we’ll go deep on a game that’s captured our attention, other times it’ll be spread out, but all of it is from our passion for games.
New systems
Not only do we make homebrew of our favorite games, we also make brand new systems. Our flagship is the WEIRD system. Designed with modularity in mind, the WEIRD system supports a ton of different genres and playstyles all without needing to learn a whole new system.
Friends welcome
We wouldn’t exist without the support of the community! If you’re looking to playtest some new systems or even just find some games, follow our socials down below.
