Wonderful episode. Can’t wait to check out more content from you & Tasha elsewhere! I’ve been playing these weird little games since the days when you *could* read and play pretty much all of them each year.

One thing I hope listeners understand about City of Winter is that a one-shot is definitely “demo mode” & that when your character dies you are still playing them in flashback and passing down memories for quite a while. Maybe multiple sessions! I found in playtesting that this mitigates much of the sadness. It’s like an extended wake & you have a lot of power & freedom after your character passes on. (Along with continuing to play side characters)

I love the metaphor of an extended wake! That's beautiful. I can't wait to play that game.
