Media Lab Books released The Game Master's Book of Magic and Mayhem for Kids, and Kyle gives it five out of five stars. Despite the "kids" label, this is really an idea book that works for any age group - it just keeps the content appropriate for that sweet spot 10-12 age range where new players often start.
What's inside: NPCs divided into allies, villains, and wild cards (including an 8-year-old with a magical greatsword and Sissy Ontario, the urban druid). Random tables for taverns, locations, and weird items. A complete one-shot adventure featuring ghost pirates, treasure, dwarves, and a baby rescue mission. Plus traps, magic items, and maps by Czepeku with QR code access.
Kyle especially loves the random tables and appreciates having a trap resource since he admits he's terrible at creating his own. The art by Chris Seaman inspires you visualize these ideas within your own world-building. No complex rules here, only solid ideas you can incorporate in your campaign.

Spider-Man 2, and to a lesser extent 3, were both pretty good ‘I need to kill some time’ games – there’s just something relaxing about web-swinging around an open world New York.
Hopefully this game has a similar feel. The camera looks a bit dodgy, though; something about the shakiness.
Yea that’s the one thing i notice was the camera looked a bit annoying,but aside from that this looks extremely promising.
I’m not as concerned about the camera shakiness as I am about the angle.
The character in this game has a high movement speed, so is the standard “behind and to the right” of the character going to cut it?
like for example. When he used that jump move at 0:36 of the first video.
I think the camera should be below the character.
thanks for this!
the swinging is amazing! i love how the camera is so close to you and it shakes all the time. Feels immersive and real man.
