Button Kin
Having been bitten by the TTRPG bug at the ripe old age of 37, Yvris (pronounced Eve-ris) Burke, the creative force behind Button Kin Games, wasted no time immersing herself in different systems and roleplaying experiences, boring old friends and family members to actual death with her newfound obsession. Before long, in a typical stroke of hubris, she decided to make her new hobby her job.
Drawing on a life long love of sci-fi, fantasy, whimsy, and hijinks, Yvris is best known for her solo RPG about being a baby bumble bee, Bumbling, her best-selling D&D 5e adventure A Fey Mystery of Glen Dourn, and her work streaming with Girls Run These Worlds.
Drama Llamas
Drama Llamas is a narrative-driven TTRPG about reality TV competition shows. Easy to plan and easy to play, the game contains everything you need to create (or recreate) the reality franchise of your dreams. Packed with genre tropes and chaos-generating mechanics, all with an absurdist, llama-flavoured twist.
You and your friends will play as a cast of fame-hungry llamas, eager to grab the spotlight and snatch the big prize. You'll complete challenges, create drama, form alliances, sabotage your fellow contestants, and expose your deepest darkest secrets. Keep an eye on your drama score, though — toxic llamas never prosper!
Gather 3–5 players plus a GM, or "Producer", create your llama contestants and compete for the grand prize while generating heaps of delicious drama. This game is 90% role play, 10% strategy, 0% combat (unless the drama gets really out of hand!).
