Hex Games Does Zine Quest 2

Steve Johnson6 years ago2 years ago04 mins

Three of Hex Games’ most prolific creators have launched Kickstarter campaigns as part of the Zine Quest 2 event. Given that some of the earliest Hex products were released in zine format (even though we didn’t call them zines), it’s kind of to be expected.

Things Are Happening!

Steve Johnson6 years ago3 years ago06 mins

Re-Thinking Shymeria

Steve Johnson6 years ago3 years ago02 mins

For a while now I’ve been working on a game called Guardians of Shymeria, which was going to be the setting for the Sample of Play Theater game in the Cinemechanix rulebook. The basic idea was “He-Man meets Heavy Metal,” with 80s cartoon characters (because I really wanted to steal a rule Josh Burnett had…
