RPGaDay2015: Most Recent RPG Played

Even though we didn’t get a chance to play our current A Sundered World campaign yesterday, we were still pretty busy: something with Super Dungeon Explore, wrapping up the cover and interior art for The Rakshasa, and some talk about an adventure (not sure if I’ll be doing it for Dungeon World, though) and Dungeons & Delvers. […]

Super Dungeon Explore: Arcade Mode Review

I got the first wave of The Forgotten King Kickstarter sometime last week. The game has two modes: Arcade, which is fully cooperative, and Classic, which is, well, the “classic” way to play. I’ve only delved into Arcade mode, so that’s what I’m going to talk about in this post. I’ll get into the heroes […]

Super Dungeon Explore: Meet the Heroes, Part 2

It’s been quite some time since I talked about (and unfortunately even played) Super Dungeon Explore, but I finally found and unpacked all of the board games at our new place, which means… …we just have to wait for our internet service provider to actually get out here, and upgrade our internet to a speed that allows […]

Super Dungeon Explore: Meet the Heroes, Part 1

Last time I talked about Super Dungeon Explore, I went over some brief tactics about how to better crush the heroes. This time I want to actually talk about the heroes. Well, some of them: right now there are 15 to choose from (16 if you can get your hands on Candy & Cola), with four […]

Super Dungeon Explore: Wipe in the Kobold Warrens

I am running a Super Dungeon Explore hangout game this Tuesday, but since Melissa wanted to get in a practice game we decided to run a small Dungeon Crawl using our newly-painted kobolds. Yeah, I know that they are one of the default group of minions, but we quickly got our hands on the Rocktop Gang […]

Crushing the Heroes: Getting a Solid Start

I have been playing Dungeons & Dragons and other table-top roleplaying games for damn near 20 years. Most of the time I play the Dungeon Master/Game Master/Storyteller/whatever, so I am used to having to juggle multiple characters, many of which are bad guys that ultimately the characters get to beat up and maybe rob depending on […]
