Welcome to Games of Interest - a weekly summary post of games and supplements that have caught my eye this week.
Stranger Chrome
Published by John Banner
Price $2.50
Stranger Chrome is a short and simple story game inspired by the coming-of-age struggles from the characters in the TV show Stranger Things married to the near-future dystopia of cyberpunk stories like Burning Chrome.
We play to answer questions about the world and our character's place in it, and explore how the setting makes our character's lives both easier and harder. It's suitable for 3-5 players and about an evening of play, and can use dice, tokens, or any kind of conflict-resolution system you like.

An historical supplement on pilgrimages, relics and religion in the European Middle Ages.
The Poor Pilgrim's Almanack is filled with painstakingly researched essays on religious life (and death) in the middle ages, it lets you use relics and pilgrimage as the basis of an alternative conception of clerical magic. Also included are details on travel, burial customs, catacombs, and the business of relic theft. A travelogue of shrines and other pilgrimage sites, detailed rules for relics and reliquaries, and a listing of historical miracles (corresponding to familiar clerical spells) make this 128 page sourcebook a treasure trove of inspiration. Dozens of adventure seeds and tables for generating encounters on the road, graves and grave goods, and randomized catacomb generation and stocking round out the contents. A new class, the Palmer, provides a novel take on religious adventurers.
