Back Again from the Broken Land is a short Powered by the Apocalypse tabletop roleplaying game of small adventurers sharing stories on a long walk home. It is meant to be played in one to three sessions. The game is inspired by the emotional, even bittersweet, stretches of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings.
The game is perfect for low-prep and no-prep one-shot gameplay, though you can also use it to play a short campaign of two to three sessions if you want to delve deeper into the characters' journeys. All you need to play are three six-sided dice, three-to-five players plus a GM, and a willingness to spin an emotional fantasy yarn together.

Bring Home the Babe is a game about an older sibling entering the fey realm in pursuit of a stolen baby. To play you'll need one player and one GM, two six-sided dice, and an hour or two. It uses a single PbtA-style move to resolve the bargains you make with the fey in order to pursue your sibling. Your two stats, precision and potential, are a shifting measure of whether you are following your parents' lessons or your own heart. Become too grown up and you'll have to leave fairyland. Become too lighthearted, and you'll never be able to.
The Tabula Initiative is a tabletop roleplaying game for 1 Player and 1 GM. It requires two six-sided dice and two hours or so to play. The player is an amnesiac black ops asset trying to recover their memory and stay one step ahead of their past. Your one move lets you rely on muscle memory to recover maneuvers from the recesses of your mind. This gets easier if you increase your Programming stat—but if you let your Programming reach 4, you are a fully on-mode Tabula operative once again.
Will you uncover the truth about your past with the Tabula Initiative before it reclaims you? What will you sacrifice to chart a new future?
