OSR News Roundup for June 20th, 2022
I'd like to start off with a couple of products I missed last week, both designed to take advantage of the current print prices before they go up in July. This update is a little late and a little abbreviated -- I was traveling over the weekend, and didn't have as much time as I would like to add stuff. If I missed something let me know and I'll add it to next weeks.
*Hack and Slash Publishing has released Classic Fantasy Negative Space, a bundle of three of their titles combined as both print and pdf in a single bundle. It includes the popular On Downtime and Demenses.
*Axian Spice has released the Lands of Legend Print and PDF bundle, featuring five themed location-based 'zines.
*You can find Casket of Fays #6, a free 'zine written for Dragon Warriors. It's also available on itch.
*John Buckley has released Basic Fantasy Spellcard as a PWYW product, which are pretty much what they sound like, printable spell cards for use with Basic Fantasy.

*I'm glad to see this out (and am anxiously waiting for the print copies to arrive in the store); Gig Economy, one of the many products crowdfunded for ZiMo22, is now in pdf, featuring two hundred ready-to-use retainers for OSE or other old-school games.
*IKO, who was featured in last week's Meet the Publisher interview, has released Scary MoFos on itch, a 90's suburban horror game.
