I just realized we should have put an empty rum bottle on the rooftop with our awoo friend there. Then if wouldn’t matter if I said the game name too fast and it came out like “Roof Rum Ruin”.

Funny you should ask, we’re holding a playtest fest next Wednesday from 7:00 - 8:30 pm eastern :) this one is focused on character creation (but it uses tarot extensively). I can link you to the signup if you’re interested.

A. I no longer envy “high rollers”.
B. Gambling is, at best, a form of budget-limited entertainment. At worst, well… much worse.
C. There’s a lot of game theory to learn from the wide variety of games in a casino. And, you don’t have to lean into the most addictive elements to have fun with concepts

To be clear, I’m not a big gambler. I just think it’s an interesting game.

Seeing a few of my favorites in there. And yes… I think it’s fine? There is still space to sleep? You can buy food? Then it’s not a problem, yet 😅

A vital part of the process, and one where some of the best parts of my games were uncovered.
