As the calendar turns to 2025, DragonChiffchaff reflects on an extraordinary year filled with achievements and milestones that have solidified our place in the TTRPG community. From launching new books to unveiling our first satirical board game, 2024 was a year of innovation and connection. Here’s a look back at what we accomplished and an exciting glimpse into our plans for 2025.
2024: Highlights and Milestones
New TTRPG Books
In June, we proudly launched three new TTRPG supplements:
-
Plant Power (June 14, 2024): This resource introduces plant-based subclasses, spells, and campaign ideas, perfect for bringing nature-inspired storytelling into your games.
-
Like a Candle in the Mind (June 18, 2024): A thoughtful exploration of mental resilience and challenges, this book offers unique mechanics to add depth and drama to your campaigns.
-
Oozing Wisdom (June 21, 2024): Dive into the mysterious and slimy world of oozes with new creatures, subclasses, and dynamic adventure hooks.
In addition to these new titles, we updated all of our English-language books and created special bundles with a 40% discount to make our content more accessible. Notably, our French-language book Ça va barder received a major update on August 25, 2024, adding new content and enhancing its mechanics.

Board Game Launch: Expat!
On April 2, 2024, we launched Expat!, our first board game. This satirical, strategy-based game challenges players to navigate life in contemporary France with humor and wit. Available as a print-it-yourself product, Expat! reflects our commitment to blending social commentary with engaging gameplay.
