In each episode of Carpe Ludum, I recommend free games you can go and play. The recommendations are across genres and game types, including options for low-spec gamers as well as options for those looking to invest a lot of time into a game. A podcast for those looking to try out new games or wanting to game on a budget.
This episode, I recommend Dread, Goblin Quest and Blades in the Dark, simple and niche tabletop role-playing games that are a great introduction to some of the most intriguing corners of the hobby.
