Show Notes

To tide us over til our next one-shot, here's a bonus episode where our host and GM Fiona interviews Chris Bissette, award winning game designer, writer and musican.

Chris has written for games like Pathfinder 2, Fallout, Hunter: The Reckoning, and cy_borg. They are best known for their indie breakout solo journalling The Wretched, which was selected as one of Tabletop Gaming Magazine's 'Best Games of 2020' and has spawned hundreds of new games based on its Wretched & Alone engine.

Their current ongoing project, A Dungeon Game, is a free light three-stat OSR style game with some novel mechanisms that allow you to turn failures into successes and that decouple advancement from murder. Check out the live web version here.
