Gamehole Con 2026

By Dean on October 27, 2026

You have no idea how much it pleases me to be able to report on the various things that happened at Gamehole Con 2026. Each year I get excited and plan around one of the most impressive conventions for its size in the country. 7,000 people come to Gamehole Con to meet their favorite creators, see new products, and listen to seminars given by people who literally founded the games that shaped our hobby. A lot of people go to GenCon to try to meet folks and in general it’s a great convention, but there is something special about Gamehole Con. I run into big names all the time, wandering the halls, meeting fans and the like. It’s wonderful.

Anne Rice's Immortal Universe Roleplaying Game Review

This is a collection of Tokens, trackers and reference cards. Rather than just quietly add them to the Cosmere page and hope you notice, I figured a proper post was in order.

Here’s everything new that’s up now.

3D Prints

This is the bulk of what’s new. If you’ve been running the Cosmere RPG at the table, these will give your players a big smile when you toss them various trinkets.

Ivy and Chrome Review

on July 25, 2026

Ivy and Chrome is a Shadowrun adventure from the dawn of Shadowrun (1st edition). This adventure has a great balance of things to have players do (Magic, Decking, Rigging, Combat, Social) but is also one of the single most unbalanced adventures I have ever personally seen. I think the story has great heart, but it needs a WILD amount of tweaks to keep your players from accidentally wandering into what I can only describe as 2 absolutely apocalyptic battles.
