My first GenCon RULED. I will absolutely and 100% be back- I met wonderful people, attended super fun parties, made meaningful connections, and oh yeah, brought back SO many games. Inspired isn’t a strong enough word to describe how I’m feeling. Here’s everything I got! Ever played any of these?

Lets goo! Super jealous!
Fan of the spooky? Just when you think you know someone 🙂
You're gorgeous
I can't wait to check out and play these games!
That Eat The Reich Book is stunning eh!
Moar Donkey n Hype Train tootin' noises plz 😛
Aww Archie
Heck yeah! That's a lot of games, and a lot of fun to be had. Nice haul.
Everything looks so cool and fun!! Can't wait to see you in action with these games!
Thank you for placing a few new things on my games radar! Love the focus on weird spookums.
Also, I have played Escape the Dark Sector and it is really fun! If I had an income and a group to play it with, I'd definitely want to get the expansions for it too, as those all sound cool and weird.
I enjoy Escape the Dark Sector (though it probably doesn’t get to my table enough). Love the art, and the difficulty is up there.
So. Many. Cool. Games! Definitely some there I will probably have to grab. Thanks for showing them off! I also really enjoyed the stream clips interspersed here 😂 good memories
Aww, man, Witty, I'm sorry I missed you! Admittedly, I spent more time running games than actually wandering the con, but…
that Dream Face game is freaky stuff, especially when i have many deja vu experience, ahahah.
Fire haul witty, plenty of stuff to keep a little giddy goblin entertained for a good few hours at least?!
It's like you are a one woman adventuring party that went into a Gencom themed dungeon and ransacked the place! What an amazing haul! I'm definitely going to check out 1978.
I love that your dog has the same hair as you
You got great taste! Lot of great picks in you haul!
Please do an Eat the Reich gameplay!
I love your shirt where did you get it?
You forgot to mention Will Kirkby's greatest work, the art for Space Station Zero!
Looks like you have lots of fun stuff there, you should run an Eat The Reich one shot at Adepticon or TMX or something, I'd be down to play it. 🤘
I also saw some coverage on that little notepad dungeon crawl thing, that looks super rad!
Eat the Reich is the most beautiful book. I feel like my Kickstarter cost went all to amazing print treatments! In the best way.
Great Video, going to check these out.
Soooo cool! I gotta try that Stroll Playing Game! Gotta go, it's time to kill a God! Subbed!
Some absolute bangers in this haul, thanks for sharing!
I bought Alice is Missing a few years back but have not had the opportunity to play it despite. It seems so different from anything else on the market and I wanted to know if you could play it remotely. I've been looking for a game that could scare me into not wanting to game anymore much as Project Zero (Fatal Frame) did with video games – never finished that one, playing in the dark with the sounds pumped up through the stereo and the haptic feedback scared the crap out of me. Good to see you back and glad you enjoyed GenCon.
I’d love to hear your thoughts of on Eat the Reich. I love Will Kirkby’s art and also Grant Howitt’s designs but I’ve heard mixed things about how they’ve handled the material
Awesome! Can't wait to see you delve into some of these more in depth!
can tell you for sure, as someone who LOVES collaborative worldbuilding, your brother will almost certainly enjoy i'm sorry did you say street magic. I've played it probably 4 times now and every time we get something interesting and inspiring (that I usually wanna run a game in afterwards). Tell me when and I will host so many of the presented RPGs for you Witty. I'm gonna play with you if it kills me, I swear! Put me in an Eat In The Reich game! I played it just last month and NEED more of it!!
Also the Paper-App Dungeon is nice. I've got a couple and been playing intermittently when the time/mood strikes. It works incredibly well for what you described keeping it around for (friends always needing bail, especially). Wish life hadn't kicked my shit in so hard to stop me from maybe going there myself now. Next time tho.
Great video! Love the introduction of so many new indie games!!
Seeing as you vibed with Eat The Reichs art by Will Kirkby, and enjoy gribly space nonsense, you might also enjoy the squad miniatures game Space Station Zer0. It's from Snarling Badger, yes Uncle Adam/Tabletop Minions and Vince Venturella from the internet company!
Gencon looks amazing but a lot. You did well! Goblin mode got all the treasures.
I just wanted to say that I'm starting to get into mainly solo and zine-based rpgs and, being a huge horror fan, you just gave me so many game ideas to pick up! Thank you!!
❤️🤘🔥
trash pandas is so good! It’s quick and savage and so much fun
i like chill its old school rpg but it is full of horror stuff …..
Witty: "I truly believe that the reason to live is to enjoy it, and I think playfulness and games are a big part of that"
YESS! I totally believe this as well! Obviously there are a lot of ways to dive into what it means to "enjoy" life, and what can happen if you put short term enjoyment over long-term enjoyment in various ways, but I fully believe that to live life well, you must make joy and love and enjoyment a priority in your life. When you look back on your life, you will treasure the moments of connection and happiness over everything else.
Love that we share this same philosophical understanding of the world and our place in it. 🙂
Oh good a new rabbit hole to spiral down in
"I want to be scared" Hello, I am a forever GM my players call my games PTSD&D. If you want to be scared in an RPG the game needs to do something that you didnt think it was possible to do.
Does anyone know where to find the "Missing" game with the scratch card function, I sadly can't find any info when googeling.
Great haul! Thanks for sharing!
Not gonna lie, I saw your YouTube title and laughed my ass off! I seriously mean no disrespect, simply I got your title. Amazingly funny and appreciative of humor.
Player and GM since 1978. If your players are “players” you’ll be fine regardless

Also, my daughter is “on the spectrum “ and how can I get the Alice is Missing game. It would be perfect as she is autistic and dislexic. I have a hard time getting her to engage. She’s now 33😢
So many cool games in one video and presented in a really enjoyable and natural way. Glad to hear you dived into Kingdom Death, such a cool game. Subbed 🖤
Thank you for showing off all your new games. Looks like I will have some new games in my future. Trash Pandas is awesome – made the the same people that Sushi Go – you will have fun
Omg what an incredible haul! Missing you at Nova, can’t wait to catch some streams when I get home!
Thanks for running through your haul! I really enjoyed Miru, and I'm off to check out Void 1680.
That’s really cool you play these with your bro
obscure is SO hecking good
I love you nails
Trash pandas is super fun! Much more complex and competitive than I expected
