Launching #RPGaDAY 2019


August is looming ever closer, which means it's getting close to that time when #RPGaDAY returns! Once again, throughout August, we're asking you to use the daily prompt to talk about, illustrate, photograph, blog, tweet, instagram, or anything, all about tabletop roleplaying games, and how they make your life better.

As always, keep it positive - this is all about spreading the word about how great our hobby is.

Check out this little video for more information -



The prompts this year are a single word, giving you the chance to interpret it in your own way - get creative!

If you'd prefer the prompts in plain text, for easier readability, here are the daily words:

1. First
2. Unique
3. Engage
4. Share
5. Space
6. Ancient
7. Familiar
8. Obscure
9. Critical
10. Focus
11. Examine
12. Friendship
13. Mystery
14. Guide
15. Door
16. Dream
17. One
18. Plenty
19. Scary
20. Noble
21. Vast
22. Lost
23. Surprise
24. Triumph
25. Calamity
26. Idea
27. Suspense
28. Love
29. Evolve
30. Connection
31. Last


If you don't like the word, pick an alternative like...

Greedy, Artificial, Magic, Light, Incredible, Stunning, Emotional, Dark, Hint, Map, Trophy, Fury, or Companion.

Or take the word and do the opposite. Or roll a D6 and scatter off in different directions to a new word - if you've done it before, interpret it in a new way!

As always, #RPGaDAY supporters around the world have been translating the prompts, the first to do so is Roberto "Sunglar" Micheri who has translated it into Spanish - thank you!
