Mike & Milly talk with the Alexandrian RPG Library!

The Alexandrian RPG Library is a non-profit organization that works to make tabletop RPGs more available to people, by use of a traveling lending library. They also do Twitch streams with the creators and players of tabletop RPGs, discussing their design, creation, and processes.

Myself (Mike) and Milly recently spoke with the Alexandrian RPG Library about Reclaim the Wild. We covered a wide range of topics, both about the system, about fan TTRPG systems in general, and we even gave voice to some of our own RPG characters’ strangest moments.

Wild on the Web: Zeldathon

We’ve just learned that Reclaim the Wild will be featured as part of this year’s Zeldathon!

They play through a wide variety of Zelda games, in a wide variety of ways: straight-up speedruns, relay races, Two Games One Controller challenges, and more. If you’ve never watched a Zeldathon before, this is a good year to start – they’ll also be premiering a documentary about the history of the event, covering over ten years of charity streaming.

The Reclaim the Wild session is currently scheduled to start Tuesday, December 31st, at 9:45 AM Eastern. Since this is a charity stream-a-thon, though, times are subject to change!

This year, the Zeldathon is working to donate money to the St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

You can check out the full Zeldathon schedule here.

Wild on the Web: Nayru Compilation

Nayru, a YouTube video creator who might be best known for their “Hyrule History” videos, just put out a new video. In it, they feature 5 cool Legend of Zelda fan projects, ranging from whole-new videogames, musical works, a unique speedrun category… and a certain li’l fan-made tabletop RPG system.

Be sure to check out the other cool projects listed in the video, too! Not only might they serve as fun inspiration for your own Reclaim the Wild games, they’re entertaining and engaging all on their own.

Wild on the Web (and in Print!): Jeux Video & Jeux Video Magazine

Bienvenue, nouveaux amis de France!

We’ve seen a lot of new people in the Reclaim the Wild community recently, hailing from Europe – mostly, France. It’s been a pleasant surprise, but we’ve been a bit puzzled – where’d they all come from?

Well, now we have an answer. It seems that Jeux Vidéo Magazine highlighted us in their July/August issue! It’s a small mention, not even a quarter of a page, but even so – as far as we’re aware, this marks the first time Reclaim the Wild has been talked about in a printed format.

Meanwhile, Jeux Video – which I’ve been told is a separate entity, just with a very similar name – gave us a shout-out on their Twitter. We bet that had something to do with it, too!

Merci, Jeux Video & Jeux Video Magazine!

Wild on the Web: Tabletop Simulator

Lord Fuse, a member of our community, has set up a board to play Reclaim the Wild in Tabletop Simulator! You can check it out on the Steam Workshop.

If you haven’t heard of Tabletop Simulator, it’s a way to play board games and tabletop RPGs with friends online. It’s a physics simulation of the entirety of a table (hence the name), including pieces, cards, dice, and whatever else you want to do, so it can handle just about anything. And now it can handle Reclaim the Wild!

Thanks to Lord Fuse! Now, get out there and try it out! And maybe flip a table when you get sniped by a Guardian Stalker out of nowhere. 😉
