everweird world

The RPG hobby can quickly overwhelm a bookshelf. Every week, everweird takes a look at their RPG bookshelf and talks about if they're playing a game, why or why not, and what they take from a game, adventure, or supplement. Going in a different route from a typical review, everweird hopes to present how and why they bring a game to the table.
