This is a community to talk about games, discuss them, and find women to play with. Games include video games, board games, pen and paper, tabletop, and anything of the like. Tell us what you're playing, recommend or critique games, share news and articles about games or stories from your gaming sessions, or form a new group to have adventures with!
If you are looking for other women to play with, please flair your post with "looking for game" or "looking for players". Spoilers should be labelled as such.
A lot of games feature misogynistic content or imagery - discussion of these aspects is encouraged, but please refrain from telling anyone what she can or can't play or enjoy. Console or franchise wars, elitism and debates over "casual" and "serious" games and gamers are not allowed.
While many games feature combat and violence as core aspects, please keep the glorification of violence to in-game only.
Links to any pirated content are not allowed and will be removed.
The sitewide rules and the guidelines are in effect here.

Amelia Peabody is my absolute fave. I reread the whole series about once a year. And yes the Audiobooks by Rosenblatt are the best!
