7 / 10.0 - Here Be Dragons
Sep 3, 2020

What do you get when you combine the randomness of the roll of the dice with a rule system that may be simple but has ample room for strategy (and mistakes) and a pretty sly sense of humor (though, as with all humor, it may not work for you)?

Aug 28, 2020

Starting out with an admission I’ll say that, in general, I’m not typically an automatic fan of survival games...
