Yeet vs. Zinequest 2026
Tonight at 5pm EASTERN writer and designer from Mount Olympus Community College and Pigeon's Eleven, Scott Slater, joins Yeet vs. Zinequest!
⚡️We have under a week left for Mount Olympus Community College. Can we get 150 or 200 more to enroll in this institution?
Michael Faulk, Jeff Mitchell, and Scott Slater comprise the team at Arbitrio, splitting up design, art, layout, and fulfillment. Check them out: https://arbitriogames.wordpress.com/
What began as a way for three friends to peer pressure one another into completing game designs has grown up to become a small RPG design / publishing company focused on fun, weird, and interesting games. If you’re looking for a fun alternative to your weekly or monthly RPG, our games are quick to learn, playable in one sitting, and a fun way to build stories with your friends.
Arbitrio wrote Pigeon's Eleven for us and it was also a Zinequest project. It has been a HUGE HIT!
