RPG a Day: Day 12


Question 12: Which RPG has the most inspiring interior art?

SLA industries.

With art from Dave Allsop and Clint Langley as the backbone, with a  wealth of black ink drawing on the inside of all the books released for the game, the art was always integral to the game in terms of giving us a look into the headspace of the authors and artists. Not that that was always a comfortable place to be, but neither is the World of Progress!

This game was the essence of 90s gaming for me, and the art played a very big part in that.

The Necronomicon Press stand was there, where I hooked up with a copy of TED Klein's: The ...

I was recently notified of this little free to download RPG, that may be of interest to some of you: True Love Match . To quote the author : True Love Match is the game of romance and reality TV. You’ll need six people, a couple of rooms, and a few hours. It might mess you up a little.  I have yet to read or play the game, but knowing of it's source, I can but recommend it.

So, what are you waiting for? It sounds like the perfect game to spend an evening playing!
