TLB Podcast #10 - Perplexing Ruins - Darkness Moves/Broken Luck

 

Perplexing Ruins is an illustrator and a writer. This episode might be a little different from the previous ones, maybe a little longer, and a little more intimate. Because Perplexing is a friend. He is one of the first members of our little indie RPG scene that I’ve met. 

In this heartfelt episode, we talk about ancient German castles, gouache paintings, witches, the Midwest, bigfoot and so much more.

TLB Podcast #9 - Sam Leigh - Anamnesis

Anamnesis is a journaling RPG for one player designed by Sam Leigh. In the game, you wake up with no memory whatsoever of who and where you are, and through a series of beautifully designed questions, and with the help of a deck of tarot cards you recover bit by bit your memory.

In this episode, we talk about the Rider Waite Colman tarot deck, memory loss, solo gaming, walking downtown on a sunny day, and much more.

TLB Podcast #6 Anna Blackwell - Delve/Rise/Umbra

Anna Blackwell is the designer of the solo RPG Delve, or rather the solo RPG series Delve, Rise and Umbra. 

Delve is a map-drawing game in which you run an underground dwarven hold. As you dig underground you encounter magic, treasures, evil forces. The game is played with dice and a standard card deck. It involves exploration, resource management, and drawing, and it's built to create a strong emergent narrative experience.

In this episode, we talk about the fear of the dark, caving, drawing, solo RPGs, emergent narrative and game design.
