TTRPGs are having a renaissance and it’s becoming a popular hobby amongst kids and teens. D&D clubs are popping up in schools and after school clubs. In this episode, we chat with Ro, the founder of Young Adventurers League in Melbourne about what is different about running TTRPGs for kids and teens, tips for people wanting to introduce younger folks to the hobby and more.

We also share news about Conquest and Port Play, two upcoming conventions in Melbourne as well as information about the release of Eldermist Shores, a system-agnostic magical island setting for any TTRPG or system from Ten Acre Games. Plus, we bring you another Vox Pop from the PAX Aus show floor.
