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!
