Rolling Boxcar’s Best of 2022

As we are wont to do here at Rolling Boxcars, as we ride out the end of each year, we like to look back and take readers on a journey through our most popular posts. More importantly, the journey is more about highlighting the hard work of our writing team.

Unlike the last two years, the pandemic has not plagued this past year. That is not to say it is gone, just that life has returned to normal for most, and gaming in person has also returned. With a return to normalcy, we have seen a slight dip in our readership over the past year, which we wholly expected. Even with this slight downturn, we are still outpacing our pre-pandemic readership levels, which is something to celebrate! So, a huge thank you to all of our readers!

In 2022, we continued our relationships with existing publishers and added a few more, like Arc Dream Publishing and R. Talsorian Games. We continue to diligently maintain our roster of virtual gaming events (Online Gaming Conventions), helping to bring gaming to everyone.

Here’s a look back at the highlights of 2022…
