WestMarches.games

This platform aims to make West Marches games more inviting and fun for both players and GMs.

Why I built this

I created this platform based on my experiences with West Marches campaigns. Over the years, I joined several communities and, like many players, found the onboarding process confusing and intimidating. Scattered spreadsheets, Discord channels, and complicated systems made it hard to get started, especially if you felt nervous about joining a new group.

That's why I built this website: to make the West Marches experience more welcoming and fun for everyone. My goal is to remove the barriers that keep people from enjoying these collaborative stories.

The platform handles the stuff around the game - tracking characters, scheduling sessions, keeping world lore organized - so you can spend your time actually playing.

Meet the Developer

Hi, I'm Mikael. I've worked in software for over 20 years and have spent 8 years in tabletop RPGs. I live in Sweden with my dog and bunny, who keep me company while I code.

Before this, I worked on another passion project: freshcutgrass.app, an encounter builder and manager for Daggerheart. Like this platform, it's designed to make the technical side of tabletop gaming easier so everyone can focus on having fun.

If you have feedback, ideas, or just want to say hi, feel free to reach out.

You can reach me on Discord or support the project on Patreon.
