Esoteric Ebb by @chrisbodegard.bsky.social is the closest thing to a D&D play session with a hilarious, professional, yeah-sure-you-can-do-that DM. Reactive, funny, mysterious and genuinely smart with its worldbuilding. The first truly great Child of Disco.

@esotericebb.bsky.social is my favourite game this year so far. Brilliantly written, hilarious, and with an intriguing central mystery that grabs you and doesn't let go. Blends Disco Elysium and D&D amazingly. @chrisbodegard.bsky.social @rawfury.bsky.social

I usually answer questions pretty coherently, so if you have anything you wanna know about ESOTERIC EBB feel free to stop by!
A friendly reminder that our AMA on r/Games is happening tomorrow at 4pm CST! Come and ask @chrisbodegard.bsky.social if he likes pineapple on pizza.
Ebbheads we're thrilled to share we're hosting an AMA on r/Games on Friday 20th February at 4pm CEST!
Bring your burning questions for our great overlord @chrisbodegard.bsky.social - see you there! π
In my homebrew games I usually run d100 tables with all kinds of One-Rule pockets. That usually makes encounters and dungeons a lot more chaotic/energetic. So I obviously had to add at least one major POCKET RANDOMIZER to the game. Still determined by a 1d100 though, which is fun.
Esoteric Pockets are naturally occurring randomized areas, regions, or 'bubbles' in this case, where rules are changed. It could be as simple as 'gravity-is-inverted', or it could be as weird as 'everything-is-blood-now'. And each play-through will have different pockets to find.

Your exhaustion level is a great indicator of how much you should go to bed. I'm sure this is social commentary on some level, I don't know, I'm too tired to think atm.
Our glorious leader @chrisbodegard.bsky.social is back with another cracking blog.
This one is for all you Loot Goblins out there π

The City Below is full of horrors of the typical (and not-so typical) dungeon variety. Delve into caverns, dodge traps, and solve puzzles step by step, then retreat back up for a long rest - all in an effort to locate your missing star witness.
(And to get sweet loot.)
Ambassador IVCX of the Golden Horde. A kind and gentle soul, ready to act as a shining example of intra-Coastal cooperation and modern neo-liberalism. Ignore the eye-of-Sauron energy.
In ESOTERIC EBB, it is very unlikely that you would ever succeed in starting a political debate in the middle of combat with Big Leader Gourgalash
However, it is possible
Since we're at Adventure X this weekend, we thought it might be nice to share some information on how @chrisbodegard.bsky.social built the wonderful world of Esoteric Ebb.
Get comfy and enjoy the read:

First color test of 'Old Prison'. It's an ancient snailfolk cistern which was then reworked into a temple after they were driven underground. Today, it's one of many reused pieces of infrastructure sticking around deep underneath the city.
It is also the deepest dungeon in Ebb.
