In our latest episode of The Wizards Respite Sanctorum, my cohost Zach and I (Ash) delve into the diverse world of tabletop role-playing game (TTRPG) genres. We uncover hidden subgenres and share our personal favorites, both from the perspective of players and game masters.

With our conversational style, Zach and I unveil our top three TTRPG genres, discussing what draws us to each style of gameplay. Whether we’re embarking on high-fantasy adventures or navigating post-apocalyptic landscapes, we explore the unique dynamics and storytelling opportunities that each genre offers.
