[insert quest here]
[insert quest here] is a Queer Australian podcast that focuses on Role Playing Games. We love telling diverse stories, and so we do our best to lift up the voices of our community by showing off new and innovative games, from a bunch of designers. We have a lot of Actual Plays, and interviews, and sometime host other content that is harder to define.

Ruins is a game we've fallen in love with since playing it.
It's multi format, with room and support for a lot of different kinds of role play.

Enjoy, and check out the game on itch.
