Well, howdy doo. Do you find most everything absurd and hilarious?
Really? Me too!
This is probably the reason I play tabletop games. There is something a little silly about an adult playing “Let’s Pretend”, but something wonderful too. We gamer types haven’t forgotten what it is like to be a kid imagining. I’m gonna write stuff about the games I play and the games I try to play (failure is always an option). Sometimes I’ll even have opinions; shocking, right? Another anonymous entity on the internet having opinions about things, a rare occurrence.
The Gamer’s Grotto is a blog about my thoughts on games and the larger community.
