Witches of the Revolution Game Review

People traveled to America for the promise of freedom from religious and political persecution. Of the many thousands who made the journey, hidden among them were witches, practitioners of magic, and guardians of secrets. In small villages and remote towns, their Covens grew. When the call to battle came, and every citizen of the new land was asked to take up arms against England and King George III, the witches and their Covens answered the call. The revolution began, and even witches played a part in the war to come from the shadows. 

Quest Adventure Cards Game Review

American author and television host Marcus Sakey said, "For me, the best moments in storytelling are the ones where I feel I'm discovering something." In this game, the epic adventure played out with cards in front of the players is both a record of a journey taken by all the players and the intent of a specific quest of one player. As the game unfolds, more stories are told, some with victories and some with pitfalls. Ultimately, the best stories are those with twists and turns that always lead to adventure.

Don’t Get Stabbed! Game Review

It's hard being a homicidal killer. You must do a lot of planning and keep your wits about you because victims make your job challenging. They are always running around, screaming, trying to get away, and generally not very cooperative. Worse yet, they can gang together and try to work against you! How is that fair? Oh, well. No one told you being a masked murderer was going to be an easy job. Best get to stabbing!

Trove Game Review

The dungeon was dark and deep. The risks were significant, as was the treasure. As you explored the twisting paths and murky depths, many friends and foes fell. Thankfully, you survived and now have a big treasure bag for your trouble! But before you celebrate, you must pour out the contents and go through each piece of loot, dividing it up with the surviving members of your party. However, not every shiny gold piece and interesting artifact comes for free. Sometimes, there are curses and other nasty surprises. Luckily, you still have a few surviving hirelings to do your bidding. Good luck dividing up the trove of loot!

How to Dungeon Master Parenting Book Review

The premise of the book is that you can take things that you learn from D&D, especially the role of the Dungeon Master (the individual who is in charge of the game and its narrative), and apply it to parenting. You don’t need to be an expert Dungeon Master or D&D player to grasp the book's messages or find How to Dungeon Master Parenting to be fun and funny, though!

A Cure for What Ails You Game Review (prepublished version)

Medicine in the 1800s was a loosely defined and highly rudimentary practice of dangerous chemical components, ignorance of the human body, and a lot of guesswork. This was when medical professionals were still trying to figure out how best to serve, and charlatans easily duped the sick with promises of quick cures and miracles. It's here, at this time, that the players find themselves setting up shop in New Orleans, Louisiana. The population is extensive, and there are graveyards right outside the backdoor. There are plenty of opportunities to practice medicine and the quick con. Just ensure your questionable approach to healing doesn't put too many patients six feet under.
