The Glimmering - Tabletop Role Playing Games Meets NFTs

The Nifty Show: NFTs, Metaverse, Play-to-Earn & Web3 Show

A collision of real world, physical gaming, with digital gaming as desktop tabletop RPGs meet NFTs in The Glimmering. Join us with guests Stephen Radney-MacFarland, Lead Game Designer and Brent McCrossen, CEO of GRIPNR in Episode #187 of The Nifty Show.

The Glimmering is a new 5e campaign designed to preserve the magic of classic tabletop roleplaying games (TTRPGs) while innovating the player experience. The adventure expands beyond the traditional gaming world and onto the blockchain.

The Glimmering is also a gate to another plane. A place of darkness, terror, and strange vistas. It is home to otherworldly creatures that you must rally to fight as you rise through the Moonstone Empire and make history for the ages.

The Glimmering is the brainchild of the team at GRIPNR, a Web3 technology company founded by data geeks, artists, game designers, musicians, NFT collectors, and TTRPG fanatics who are crazy enough to do this. Learn more about us and why we believe transparency is the key to building a thriving community.
