I’ve collaborated with Joseph on the culture/linguistics aspects of Guild66 and it’s a project that I’m so excited about. Joseph has created such a strong, immersive creative world and has considered so many aspects of gameplay from a complete beginner perspective to make this as welcoming and inviting to new people as possible, which is something that’s missed by so many TTRPG creators, and so I’m confident that this will be such a fantastic entry into roleplaying games for so many new players. I was also lucky enough to be present for one of the beta testing campaigns (four sessions) and seeing it in person, where he led us through the campaign, really brought it to life. What Joseph truly understands is that this isn’t just about fiction writing or about creating battlegrounds with monsters: it’s about bringing people together. He asks questions. He listens. And people thrive because of it!

Playtester for Guild66

As someone with limited experience of TTRPGs, I really enjoyed playing Guid66. The world was really fun and interesting and I loved meeting and seeing the weird and wonderful creatures along the way.

The world was definitely very immersive and reading through the players guide it was easy to tell that a lot of thought and energy had gone into it. I particularly enjoyed being a part of the School of Boar and wielding my mighty hammer!

There was a good level of creative freedom in the game that allowed us to make it what we wanted without becoming lost in the world. Overall it was great to play and I would love to play it again!
