To be frank, the new year has been here quite a while already. It’s about time you start thinking about how to fulfill your New Year’s resolutions. Remember when you promised to have more fun in your everyday life and become a more adventurous person? Wait, what do you mean, that you don’t remember? Ok, then let me remind you!

• You promised, cross your heart, that you would hang out more with your friends, sit down and have a cozy time with drinks and snacks at hand.
• You promised that you would get a lot more exercise and take long walks in lush forests, so you’d get into good shape for all your future fights with monsters, raiders, mutants, robots and the likes.
• You promised to try and meet new people, you know, anything from the kids in school to the bearded strangers offering you mead at the inn, say hi to the dwarves in the mountain and grab lunch with the mutants in the Zone and… Well, just be a bit more open-minded to the random encounter.
• Oh, and you also promised that you would visit new and exciting places, like The Loop below the pastoral countryside of Mälaröarna, take a tour in the post-apocalyptic Ark, travel to the Forbidden Lands that used to be covered by the Blood Mist, travel into space and visit the Coriolis space station, and then go back to the 80’s and 90’s that never was.

So what kind of friend would I be if I didn’t help you fulfill your New Year’s resolutions?
Here is a list of games to help your new life!

Big hug, you can do it! I believe in you.

Cheers,
