Welcome back to Gaming with Gage, your podcast for Roleplaying Games and the Periphery.
Thanks for being here
And thanks to all of you have been listening to our new Actual Play. If you haven’t joined our Discord, you can actually find the full cast there. It’s also where we do all of our interviews and occasionally run online gaming sessions.
This week I got the chance to chat with Sean Nittner, Director of Projects at Evil Hat Productions and host of twitch.tv/actualplay. We spent a lot of time talking about exciting projects for 2019 including For The Queen a card-based story-building game that you can start playing in minutes. Fans of the show will recognize the game’s designer Alex Roberts from her appearance on this show. We loved Star-Crossed, even did a little AP of it, and we’re super excited to try this game out.
We also talked about Improv for Gamers, a book of practical tools to bring to your gaming experience and for all you Blades fans the recently announced Band of Blades.
As always we ask that you rate and review the show on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher or wherever you listen.
