I haven't played it, but I grabbed it - Epic Games is giving away this game:
Return to Moria
Given that it's free, and I already have an Epic Games account, I went for it. Just passing along the news in case anyone is interested.

Random Links for Friday 1/26/2024
So what don't you want to miss, in my opinion, for this week?
- CRPGs aren't a replacement for tabletop. Yeah, tell me about it. The number of times I've cleared a fort protected by intelligent, organized foes one encounter at a time with 8-10 hour rests in the middle in CRPGs is >0, in TTRPGs 0.
Computer RPGs Just Aren't . . .
- A blog on writing a fantasy gamebook? Interesting.
- This caught my eye mostly due to the tables . . . the dragon concept is suitably meta-weird.
- OD&D debuted, and effectively changed games, 50 years ago today.
You can get OD&D for all of $10 in PDF. It's an interesting read . . . worth plunking down the money and the time. I'm so glad I sprang for a physical copy way back when from Mail Order Hobby House.
- Goodman Games is launching a sequel to the very excellent DCC #67 Sailors on the Starless Sea.
- You can get Mordheim (the computer game) free on GOG for a little bit. I grabbed it, but I haven't played it yet, as I'm wrapped up in two other video games at the moment.
- No game Sunday after all. Next game is in maybe 3 weeks or so? We'll see.

Don't "Gift" me free PDFs from DriveThruRPG
The title really says it all, here.
Periodically, people "gift" me a purchase on DriveThruRPG. It's always a free item, or a Pay What You Want item they've presumably paid $0 for.
It's never something I asked for or want.
And I simply do not ever pick the gift up or download the item.
I figure this is just spam marketing at heart. It's junk mail. I don't want to check out your PDF. I don't want to read your product if you have to push it on me yourself. And I don't want someone to figure some free item is a solution to my problems and just send it to me.
Sorry for the rant, here, it's just that I can't believe I'm the only one this happens to. It's annoying. I'd block this on DriveThruRPG if I could figure out a way to do so. It just clutters up my library . . . and I won't check out what I don't know I bought myself.
Anyone have a solution to this spammy way of getting product out that I can take?

OSR Christmas Arrive - Towns & Villages
I won this thanks to Tenkar's Tavern's OSR Christmas.
They're really attractive. I think I might need to copy them or cover them to use them and mark them up. But they're very beautiful and they'll be useful when I play a non-megadungeon-centric game. Very nice stuff.

Wasteland 2 giveaway on GOG.com
Like the title says, for the next two days Wasteland 2 is free on GOG.com.
You will have to sign up for GOG to get it, and this may lead you to buying old games and spending lots of hours playing them. But hey, free post-apocalyptic video game. It's pretty good, having played it twice through.
