- About Me
- On the first day, there was Fighting Fantasy
On second day, there was AD&D Goldbox games
On the third day, there was Bard's Tale
On the fourth day, there was Ultima
All days combine into summarising my introduction to the eternal journey of our genre. We explore worlds!
I found RPGWatch via the Codex, the source of unending bile, vitriol, neurosis and esoteric insight.
