We Like D&D

In our first episode of 2026, we share some fun new show & tell items including a sci-fi-themed heist system, two articles by Kelly’s favourite person in the world (Sly Flourish), and a solo journaling RPG (because the new year is a perfect time to start journaling!). We also build three different 5e characters based on Keanu Reeves characters, and Alec gives a most triumphant summary of Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure. Finally, we finish off with our first 2 DMs 1 Player round of the year, and this time, it’s Alec’s turn to be the player… so you know there will be a little chaos!Shadowdark House Rules - https://slyflourish.com/shadowdark_house_rules.htmlRunning Shadowdark's Scarlet Minotaur as a One-Shot Game - https://slyflourish.com/running_shadowdarks_scarlet_minotaur_as_a_one_shot.htmlStealing the Throne by Nick Bate - https://ickbat.itch.io/stealing-the-throneThe Wisteria Road - https://longblade-publishing.itch.io/wisteria-road

In this very special HOLIDAY episode of We Like D&D, we share some TTRPG-themed items that are on our wishlists this year (that might give you some last-minute shopping inspiration). We also go through our favourite Show & Tell items of the year, and give them very real, not at all made up awards that have no monetary value. And finally, we play a round of 2 DMs 1 Player where Kelly is ENCOURAGED to say the secret word… because he’s the player!! From the bottom of our hearts, thank you so much for listening along this year. Happy holidays and a happy new year to you from the We Like D&D team!

In this episode, which is definitely NOT the holiday episode, we show-and-tell about a time loop adventure, a Christmas adventure add-on for Curse of Strahd, and a solo RPG that tricks you into doing meal prep! We also discuss our first impressions of Shadowdark, which we played for the very first time, and get up to some wintery shenanigans in 2 DMs, 1 Player.Pudding Faire - https://www.dmsguild.com/en/product/249757/pudding-faireWhat Should We Have Tomorrow - https://ehronlime.itch.io/what-should-we-have-tomorrow-full-courseChristmas in Barovia - https://3wisedms.com/christmas-in-barovia-a-complete-holiday-one-shot-for-your-curse-of-strahd-campaign/

In this episode, we discuss a card-based zombie RPG (just in time for after Halloween!), an RPG that simulates running a community radio station, and a controversial (?) tip for DMs trying to immerse their players… we also give unsolicited advice on how to run combat for a split party and dealing with players changing characters mid-campaign, and finish off with a silly little episode of 2 DMs 1 Player!Zombie World - https://magpiegames.com/products/zombie-world-full-setEdible Props - https://www.reddit.com/r/DMAcademy/comments/1o347eh/immersive_snacks_and_drinks/Community Radio - https://thoughtcrimegames.itch.io/community-radio

In this episode, we talk about PvP on an island, 50 adventure hooks that are a bit out of the box, and a RPG where you attempt heists as three raccoons in a trench coat. We also design a Squid Game-inspired adventure with dangerous encounters based on children’s games, and end off with a round of 2 DMs 1 Player that takes place at a gym (which we are all equally knowledgeable about and comfortable improvising)!
