Stay Connectedmaking stories playing games
Bored Ghost uses tabletop roleplaying games to create stories. Each week we release half of a tale born out a play. From independently published collaborative storytelling games to traditional Role-Playing Games, we try it all to tell stories. These tales and games are experiments.
