Yay! It really is one of my favourites. Really looking forward to gushing about it on a future episode!

Just watched the first episode. Holy crap.

Haha. We really appreciate you listening. Please do give us a rating and a share. Helps us a lot.

I am sure no question from you would be banal mate.

That's really interesting. Thanks for the question! Digging into it a little deeper, you find that players just sort of expect to be immersed by the presentation of the game and bounce of it when they find they have to do a bit more work? I am running Triangle Agency at the moment.

Oh nice. I'd missed that somehow. Played a full game today as the uprising. Very impressed. Didn't win but had a good time with it.

Could you dive into this a little bit more for me Olivia? Can you give an example?

I'll be there mostly just as a punter but looking out for new RPGs for review and inclusion in TTGM columns
