NEW PRODUCTS
DINOSAURS...IN SPAAACE!
Dinosaurs. Rockets. The 1950s. What do they have in common? They're saturated with coolness. But can they somehow work together?
Only two answers are possible: Yes, and HELL YES.
Dinosaurs...in SPAAACE! runs on the Token Effort engine, a tried and tested rules-set that privileges pratfalls over point-stacking and mania over min-maxing. It quantifies humor and rewards you whether people are laughing with you, or at you. No really, Token Effort tramples drunkenly over all difficulties with honey-badger insouciance: You can download the whole thing free at http://www.gregstolze.com/inSpaaace.zip and see for yourself.

DOXY
A companion game to Tough Justice and Courtesans, Doxy takes you down to the street and the life of the common strumpet and the darkness of the Georgian underworld. Can you make enough to eat? To drink? To drown your sorrows in gin? Can you escape the horrors of the noose or transportation?
Doxy is a fully featured game using the 'Beer & Crisps' system, not for the faint hearted or the easily offended.

UNIVERSALIS [PDF]
Winner of the Indie-RPG "Most Innovative Game" game award in 2002, now the revised edition is available for the first time as a PDF.
You and your fellow players will create a complete story, introducing characters and taking turns guiding them through a world you create while developing the plot as you play. You'll use the game's unique resource system to compete for the privilege of telling the story the way you want it told while simultaneously collaborating to create the best story possible. Suspense comes from never knowing what plot twists the other players will throw at you.
To play you need only blank paper, pencils, dice, tokens, and plenty of imagination.

THE REPAIRER OF REPUTATIONS
The Repairer of Reputations is a Trail of Cthulhu scenario by Robin D Laws, based on the story of the same name by Robert W. Chambers. It is one of four short horror stories incorporating Chambers' mythology of The King In Yellow, a decadent play whose publication brings madness and supernatural presences into the world. His mythology was later subsumed into the Cthulhu canon when H. P. Lovecraft, and his circle and later followers, made reference to it in their tales of the mythos.
A seemingly utopian future takes on a distinctly nightmarish quality. The scenario plays with this by suggesting that the publication of The King in Yellow has warped history in a disturbing direction. The alien beings described in the play are as real as the antagonists believe them to be. They want their literal heir of Hastur, Hildred Castaigne, to ascend to the Imperial throne of their America-Hastur's America.
This scenario allows the players to recreate an alternate version of the story, in which their characters, who do not appear in the original, confront the nation-shaking conspiracy of its central villains. They either destroy it, or are destroyed themselves.
