Loresworn Gaming takes a deep, RP narrative approach to AARs (After Action Reports) and Let's Plays. Rather than just playing strategy games and RPGs, we try to create a sense of a real world with history and complex characters all along the way. We also seek to explore interesting historical and social issues related to the games we play that are often taken for granted, like what actually happens when you're raiding or colonizing a province.

Our main focus is on grand strategy – particularly games made by Paradox Development Studio (Crusader Kings III, Europa Universalis IV, Victoria II, Hearts of Iron IV, and Stellaris), and the Total War series from Creative Assembly. We also sometimes play RPGs, management games, and horror games.
