State of the USP 2025

Hello heroes! I hope you had a restful and joyous holiday season. I certainly enjoyed the rest and recharge that came with my break from running games and I’m so excited to be back this month telling stories with people I love. There’s been a lot of change behind the scenes here at the Untold Stories Project as we’ve been working towards finding our voice and strengths and improving our work for you wonderful folks.

I’ll start with announcements, we have a lot of awesome new projects spinning up here including the new Titan City Serials podcast. This show releases on Thursdays and features short adventure arcs with a rotating cast of players and characters from across Titan City. Each Serial is a fun injection of noir, pulp, horror, fantasy, and/or action and I hope there is a story for everyone there. Episodes are around 30 minutes and are available anywhere you get your podcasts so I hope that makes it accessible to more members of our audience.

Tuesdays starting next week see the return of City of Destiny! Our cast of disaster bisexuals are still protecting Emerald City and will soon make their way into universe-spanning danger. I can’t wait to come back as Crucible with some familiar friends and new faces.

Freedom League Dark is also back and we’re diving into the final act of the Multiverse of the Master Mage! We’re starting with a pit stop in the zombie-ridden mall of Dead Rising and only going up from there. Tune in Wednesdays to see if our heroes can stop Eldritch’s nefarious scheme.

We’re also bringing back the weekly blog posts and Aunt Puppy has so many amazing things for our social media presence. As for conventions, we have GMs scheduled for conventions all year round. We’ll be at Buckeye Game Fest, Origins, Gen Con, Pittsburgh Gaming Expo, and U-Con with thoughts about some other shows.

As always keep your eyes here for updates. Next week’s blog post is a fun one where I break down an exciting new game design concept called Emergent Mystery! Until then play a game and we’ll see you soon.
