Treasure Hunter Egypt - Tabletop RPG Zine

This Table-top RPG Zine is set in modern-day Egypt, and you play a Treasure Hunter exploring a newly discovered Tomb. However, this being me, I couldn't make a "serious" version of that idea, so this zine is packed with (hopefully) funny references to items, characters and stories and even songs "inspired" by other franchises, such as ... well, I don't want to spoil the surprises! Let's just say that spotting all my little jokes might be almost as much fun as playing the game itself!

To play this game you need a blank crossword (taken from a newspaper or magazine, or printed from one of the many free online crossword sites), a copy of the Playsheet (spare copies are included, and you can photocopy as many more as you need), two six-sided dice or an app that can generate dice rolls, a pencil and an eraser (you can use a pen too, but as there will be a lot of crossing out as you play, a pencil is easier). The length of the game depends on the size of your crossword and how lucky (or unlucky) you are. In play testing, most games on an average newspaper crossword lasted around 30 minutes.

The rules are not difficult to learn and are given in a step-by-step format. Some optional rules are included if you wish to make the game more challenging. Whilst designed to be a single-player game, there is a "score" you can calculate if you finish the game, which you can then challenge yourself or a friend to beat.

There is no offensive language or content in this zine and as such can be safely played by anyone of any age. However, many of the jokes and references relate to things younger players may not recognise or know of. If you're a parent and your child is playing this game, it might give you a fun excuse to show them where the reference comes from :)

The Zine itself is printed on nice quality 120gsm paper. It has 24 pages, measures 10.8x14cm, and is staple bound.

Famous Bottoms Zine

If paintings of naked bottoms are likely to offend you, please don't order. There are paintings of 7 naked bottoms, 4 clothed ones, and 1 that's a bit of both in this zine!

True Story: I once recognised someone in a movie not from their face, but their bottom! In honour of that moment of posterior perceptiveness, this quiz Zine features paintings of twelve bottoms that you might recognise from art, television, movies, music and pop culture.

This Zine is 16 pages in total and has 12 full-colour watercolour illustrations. Hints are provided for each mystery bottom, and the answers are printed inside the back page. It measures 10.8x14cm, is printed on high quality 120gsm paper and is staple bound. It is shipped with a clear plastic sleeve to keep the weather out!

You can purchase it from my Etsy shop: https://lindsaybakerart.etsy.com/listing/1604384679

I'd love to hear how many of the bottoms you recognised. Please let me know, perhaps in a review?

I couldn't be happier. When Monica left for a month, we had a few arguments. She could have business with drugs? She wasn't herself. I find her troubling. Sometimes she turns off the phone. I know she's all right?

More purchases from the Manly Zine Fair today. It was a great haul but I could easily have come home with three or four times this much, except for having to stick to a budget!

I went to a local Zine fair today and had a great conversation with this artist (Lauren Metzler). I left with one of her zines and a print. Isn't her work great? You can find more right here on Tumblr at @sidequestwebcomic
