New review! My experience of Red Mug Games' Haunted Heist, a comedy horror game of criminal spirits. My play experience of this game was frustrating, but that was due, as I detail in the review, in large part to a mistake that I personally made while prepping to run the game.

Finally, the Rewards all give fun levers for the players to pull in future sessions. Faerie magic is all about change and chaos, so these introduce some of that into the game while still giving players control over when they engage with it

Something I'm trying to do in all these Threats is give a tweak to the standard format for The Between. Here, it might turn out that someone you met before was a changeling the whole time! Shake up the world! Nothing is certain!

I really enjoyed writing the Moments for this Threat. They're very evocative of its subjects and gives players something to actually do in response to them (thank you to Gauntlet discord members for advice on how to punch them up)
