What is The Commune?
We're a group of gamers, and we're always looking for new gamers to join us. Every month or so, we pick a game to play. We chat about the game together, and we record podcasts, record videos, and write essays. You can reach The Commune in the following ways:
- Register on the forums. This is where we organize events and pick games.
- Reach us by email at vgcommune *A*T* gmail *D*O*T* com.
