Show Notes
This is essentially a collection of musings on the subject of immersion, engagement and online play. Featuring calls from Jason Connerley of Nerd's RPG Variety Cast, Joe Richter of Hindsightless and Weal Or Woe, Daniel Norton of Bandit's Keep and John Alan Large of Red Dice Diaries RPG Podcast.
I "unbox" Casting The Runes, an investigative horror RPG using the Gumshoe system. You can hear a fantastic interview with Paul StJohn Mackintosh, its creator, here on Barney Dicker's Loco Ludus https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/interview-paul-stjohn-mackintosh-about-casting-runes/id1488770987?i=1000507087739
I also talk briefly about participating in a playtest of Darren "RFED" Green's DEX, an RPG he is currently developing. More on that in a future episode.
Honourable mentions: Arlen Walker of Live From Pellam's Wasteland, Dave Aldridge of dPercentile, Menion AKA Rob of Confessions of a Wee Tim'rous Bushi and Colin "Spikepit" Green's new YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrBiIGnQtLfBfYm89BLhAFA
