2025: Harvest

2025: Harvest

We summon the council of Aarons to chat about things that have the same name, and then also talk about how our years went. We compare, and even contrast, three works titled "Harvest:" The 2013 novel by Jim Crace, the 2024 boardgame by Keymaster Games, and the 2025 TTRPG by Luke Jordan. We discuss the cozyfication of farm work, how exactly one might "play" a novel, the facets of single word titles, and also look back on how 2025 treated us, wishing better for 2026. Hopefully this will be an annual tradition. Who knows! Join us, at least for now. Our theme music is “Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow” by Aaron Neville We can be found here: Aaron King [https://bsky.app/profile/aaronmfking.bsky.social] Aaron Lim [https://bsky.app/profile/ehronlime.bsky.social] Aaron Voigt [https://bsky.app/profile/aavoigt.bsky.social] RTFM [http://rtfmcast.com] AA Voigt on Youtube [https://www.youtube.com/@aavoigt] Links to work Discussed: Aarons Bsky starter pack [https://bsky.app/starter-pack/ehronlime.bsky.social/3lb3y3e6bah2v] I'll be Pod for Castmas [https://moonshotpods.com/ill-be-pod-for-castmas/] Harvest (board game) [https://keymaster.fun/products/harvest] Harvest (TTRPG) [https://gamesfromthewildwood.itch.io/harvest] Harvest (book) [https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/33086/harvest-by-jim-crace/] Thomas Manuel’s Rascal Piece [https://www.rascal.news/i-was-sacrificed-for-the-land-and-all-i-got-was-this-essay/] Claytone Notestine article [https://www.explorersdesign.com/killing-good-games-with-bad-titles/] Aaron King notable books 2025 [https://erinking.itch.io/notable-books-2025] Cozy RPG Reviews [https://www.youtube.com/@CozyRPGReviews] Weird Place [https://www.youtube.com/@weird_place] Quinn’s Quest- Boxed RPG Special [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ilR7h4q78o&pp=ygUYcXVpbm5zIHF1ZXN0IGJveGVkIGdhbWVz] Lin Codega on Over/Under [https://www.rascal.news/how-to-find-an-ending-in-over-under-mothership-discord-megagame/] Blinking Birch Puzzle Hunt 2025 [https://blinkingbirchgames.itch.io/the-blinking-birch-puzzle-hunt-2025] What Dust Remains [https://momatoes.itch.io/what-dust-remains] Aaron Lim on Yes Indie’d [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/games-need-communities-w-aaron-lim/id1496698286?i=1000737065843] ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
