O is for Old School Renaissance

The OSR is about recapturing the more direct gaming experience not just nostalgia. Also for new players to explore a different way to game. It is by the most part supported by enthusiasts and fans. This passion enlivens the base material as well bring the home brewed goodness to others. It is more than taking a board game out of a box playing and putting it aside again. It is about being a part of a dynamic interactive experience, mutual make believe and fun!

    I'm not a gamer (that would be my husband) but sometimes, I will spend an hour or so watching him play. Why? Because of the beautiful graphics and the music. The costumes and weapons.

    Love your Friar Deep pic, btw :)
