Post-Contest Lessons and Revisions

It's been a couple weeks since we ran our first contest here at PG GAMES. We considered it to be a rousing success and it's a great feeling to get your work in the hands of others. 

In the meantime, we've gotten some great constructive feedback about our latest product, THE DARK LANDS, which led to some revisions for the Alchem Adept micro-playbook. In short, we scrapped the initial design concept which had a lot of legacy typos and design errors. Lesson learned: proof better! Starting from the ground up, we completely re-hashed the Alchem Adept and are proud with how it stands now. It's clearer how it is intended to work, and all in all it just is better design. The files for THE DARK LANDS have been updated both at DriveThru RPG and Lulu to reflect this.

The biggest takeaway is that here at PG GAMES, we love feedback. Seriously. We know that a lot of folks don't really enjoy receiving criticism, even when constructive, but we thrive on it. How can we be the best we can possibly be if we don't know what we're doing wrong? So, if you have feedback or suggestions for us, please do not hesitate to contact us on Twitter or via email and just let us know. (sorcerer DOT blob AT gmail DOT com)

Contest Winners!

Over the last week we hosted a contest to give away free print or PDF copies of our latest release, THE DARK LANDS: A Dark Fantasy Dungeon World Campaign. We posted all over social media and got a pretty great response for being a small no-name hobby publisher, one that we are quite happy with.

So, without further adieu, the contestants.

We had entries about what "dark fantasy" meant to them from Elstiko, Aaron, and Connor Lemp. Thank you all for your participation, it's very much appreciated!

Now for the results.

For PDF, the winner is Elstiko!

For Print, the winner is Aaron!

PG Games Contest!

How would you like to win a free print copy of The Dark Lands: A Dark Fantasy Dungeon World Campaign? Who wouldn’t like to win a free RPG something, right? It’s basically rhetorical!

PG GAMES is happy to announce that from now (6/3) to Sunday 6/7 at Midnight CST you have a chance to enter to win a print copy of a game from the PG Games library. 

THE DARK LANDS is all about the dark fantasy and how the players in it affect change against the corruption that is ever-prevalent within in the Lands of Eternal Night. In it, characters are Stormwalkers, Beast Talkers, Sword Spirits, and Alchem Adepts. Stormwalkers traverse the world as the lightning strikes. Beast Talkers speak with and understand all sorts of creatures and beasts, even bidding favors from them at times. Sword Spirits are tied to powerful blades that house the spirits of their previous wielders. And finally, Alchem Adepts are well-versed in the lost art of the harvest. They take bits and pieces of flora and fauna to create potions and enhancements that can save the world.

To enter, you simply need to comment on this post and answer the question, "What does 'dark fantasy' mean to you?" [One entry per person. Only US residents are eligible for the print copy. If you are outside of the US, please make mention of that in your comment. Thanks!]

One lucky winner will receive a print copy of THE DARK LANDS. Another lucky contest entrant will receive a PDF copy of THE DARK LANDS.

Winners will be randomly selected and announced on Monday 6/8 around Noon CST!
