Randomocity RPG Gaming Zine

In case you hadn't seen (in which case I am a bad blogger for not talking about it), +Stacy Dellorfano of the +ConTessa online gaming con (and my Tuesday night G+ Hangout gaming group) put out the first issue of a cool gaming zine called Randomocity. The 150 copy print run ran out fast, but now the zine is available for posterity as a PDF. She's got a Gumroad site set up that lets you Pay What You Want (the hip new way to buy gaming PDFs) and get a copy of the zine in PDF. This will help defray the costs (because zining is an expensive hobby) of future issues and hopefully get a little bank help pay contributors in the future as well. After she does the print run for each issue, the PDF will go up for those who weren't able to get a copy. There's talk of an eventual compilation, too.

There are articles for Monsterhearts, OSR DIY D&D, 3:16, Apocalypse World and a lot of great art. There's also the start of a dark fantasy/swords & sorcery mini-setting for Fate Accelerated written by me. That alone is worth the price of admission. Gaming started as a DIY movement, and zines like Randomocity continues that tradition. Click on the image above and go to the site where you can get your PDF copy of Randomocity today.
