lumpley games (intentionally uncapitalised) is an independent internet publishing house run by Vincent Baker. He is the author of much praised indie games such as Dogs in the Vineyard, kill puppies for satan (also intentionally uncapitalised), Mechaton, In a Wicked Age, Poison'd and Storming the Wizard's Tower, all of which are published through lumpley games.

His games follow the "lumpley principle" which states: "System (including but not limited to 'the rules') is defined as the means by which the group agrees to imagined events during play," and are usually based on conflict resolution with a poker-like mechanic of sees and raises. He is also known for not shying from use of profanity and controversial themes, and as a result he receives a lot of poorly spelled hate mail.
