SPIEL in Essen, Germany, is one of the world’s largest game fairs — last year boasting nearly 1,000 exhibitors and over 200,000 visitors! And yes, Two Starving Gnolls will be there!
We’ll be stationed in a large booth, proudly showcasing The Exorcist’s Codex along with some of our earlier releases. Come by for a nerdy chat about our games, tabletop roleplaying in general, or just to say hi — we’d love to meet you!
But we won’t be alone. We’re traveling alongside several other awesome Norwegian game developers. Norway may be small, but it’s a mighty nerdy country — and home to one of the best gaming shops in the world (we’re looking at you, Outland!!).
Speaking of Norwegian games: A few years back, we had the pleasure of playing Kvad, a TTRPG steeped in the haunting beauty of Norse sagas, created by Karl Otto Kristoffersen. We had a blast and wholeheartedly recommend it.
Now we’re thrilled to see Kvad coming to the international stage — launching in English on BackerKit in just ten days! Be sure to check it out… Who knows? Maybe you will one day be honored with a Norse poem sung in your name..!
And if you're a history buff, we wholeheartedly recommend Karl Otto Kristoffersen’s latest RPG: Silverheart — a historical roleplaying game set in late 1700s Kongsberg, Norway. You will step into the filthy shoes of poor people burdened by debt, disaster, and dwindling hope—in order to fight for survival, and find purpose in the shadow of a dying mining industry.
