What we’re about
We're gamer-types interested in playing games, being social, making friends, and meeting new people. We love all types of games, especially role-playing, but also board, card, miniature, or whatever. We also love all gaming adjacent stuff too, such as anime, cosplay, game design, world building, video games, and more.
- We believe in getting games off your shelf and onto the table.
- Mission statement: Play everything at least once.
- Our unofficial motto: "Yeah, we'll play that!"
- We exist to help players find games and GMs find players.
- We welcome new players and new GMs to the greater Cincinnati area.
- We liaison with other organizations, podcasts, cons, game stores, and more.
- We encourage all everyone to game, especially underrepresented demographics such as women, LGBTQIA+ people, and BIPOC (biracial, indigenous, people of color).

See all- Prisoner 13 D&D 5E (2014)Hero's Hearth, Cincinnati, OH
An Adventure for 4th-Level Characters
On the world of Toril, in the frozen reaches north of the Sword Coast, lies an impenetrable fortress built to house the region’s most dangerous criminals. One of this prison’s earliest inmates, a dwarf known as Prisoner 13, spends her days in seeming quiet and solitude while secretly pulling the strings of a spy network that spans much of the continent. She holds the key to a treasure she stole from a dwarf clan. In this heist, the characters must infiltrate the prison, retrieve the key from Prisoner 13, and return the key to Varrin Axebreaker, the dwarf who hired them.
We'll provide dice, pencils, paper, and basically anything you'll need to play, so you can just show up, learn, and most importantly have fun!
Pregenerated characters are provided.

(This is an ongoing, open-table game. New players are encouraged and welcome!)
Embark on an epic journey through the realms of imagination with Old School Essentials Advanced Fantasy, a masterfully crafted homage to the golden age of tabletop role-playing games. Inspired by the classic Basic D&D rules (BX / BECMI, minimal house-rules), this game system brings the magic and wonder of classic fantasy adventures to life, inviting you to explore a world where heroes rise, legends are born, and every roll of the dice weaves a new tale of glory and peril. Undertake epic quests that will test your courage, wit, and resolve. Dive into a richly detailed world with captivating lore, and endless possibilities for adventure.
Beginning with first level characters, you’ll search dangerous dungeons, traverse harrowing hex-crawls, and explore exotic environments—all in the name of wealth, fame, and glory.
I’ll be using a series of published and homemade adventures set in a homebrewed world, loosely connected allowing for players to drop-in-and-out as the games progress.
