Post A giant dungeon map... of published RPGs
Greg Christopher shared this on Google+ a little bit ago, and I had to reshare it here, because it's awesome: A giant map of published roleplaying games. And it comes with little 'monster' stickers you can put on the poster to track your progress through the 'dungeon' of games.

I know what I'm asking for when my birthday rolls around.

Neat! I'm pleased to say that I've heard of all of those and played/owned a fair share of them. Kind of bummed that Wushu didn't get a shout out even though Fen Shui and Bushido made it. I thought QAGS and PDQ should have been in universal.

I also liked some of the iconography used in the rooms. Nice touch.

There's a significant lack of indie RPGs in the map, which I guess is sort of to be expected but a little disappointing all the same.

I was thinking the same thing, but I know that I don't have the time to make an indie games edition. :-)

Got a chuckle for Fringeworthy, many folks have missed that one.

Picking nits:

1: Feng Shui belongs under Pulp, not Military/Espionage.
2: Notable absences: Changeling (both Dreaming and Lost); Wraith the Oblivion; Dread; TORG.

Aye. Btw, Torg is in the universal branch.

Ah, you are correct, my error.

The same people did a flowchart not long ago, but I like the dungeon better.

Like the dungeon much more, but it is interesting to see the evolution.

Did y'all notice who did the art for the dungeon?
