Perhaps you, like I, have backed a tabletop RPG or other product on any of the variety of crowdfunding websites. Or maybe you've bought one of the intimidatingly large bundles of games for a good cause. It's possible you've heard a cool game featured on an actual play podcast or stream or video series, and wanted to pick it up. And of course, you try to follow the trends and check out interesting new releases. Well, I don't know about you - but if you are  in such a position, having bought many more games than you've read (and read many more games than you've played), you might find yourself considering, like I have, what to do with such a vast treasure. Richard Kelly has provided me with one possible answer - save the world. Or at least, a library. Heroic Archivist is a game in which you accrue points by reading through your backlog of games, and potentially earn more points by rating and reviewing. These points can then be spent in a little dice battle again...
