Issue 99.5: Fun & Games
Hark, adventurer! Do you seek glory and riches? Do you seek excitement and suspense? Do you have paper and a pencil?

You are the last people I need to tell about the potential of the page, but with the explosion of indie tabletop games the barrier between a rainy day and a strange, imaginative grand journey is paper-thin. In the summer issue of Broken Pencil, we guide you beyond mere Dungeons & Dragons to the greater realms of the indie tabletop scene.

In our main feature, we meet Jeeyon Shim, a game maker who channels nature and memory into her design sensibilities. Crafting contemplative, journaling games to carry with you beyond a table session. On top of this profile, Issue 99.5 includes:
