This month, Roger and Mike look back on our experience with Blades in the Dark. Warning, Roger gets a bit ranty.

We mentioned:

RuneQuest at the Humble Bundle (until 3 August), Blades in the Dark, The Lies of Locke Lamora, Powered by the Apocalypse, Ocean's Eleven (2001), Ocean's Eleven (1960), GURPS Dungeon Fantasy Arkham Horror boardgame, Tales of the Arabian Nights, Pyramid #3/53 with Roger's article on planning points, Donjon 7th Sea, Scum and Villainy, Band of Blades, the Esoteric Order's Monsterhearts game, the Gloriana campaign, Leverage Beat analysis, Save the Cat!, and Prime Time Adventures.

We have a tip jar (please tell us how you'd like to be acknowledged on the show).

    Glad you are back. Interesting look at your experience of Blades in the Dark. I backed the game in its very early days because I had so much fun running his Ladyblackbird oneshot but I have yet to actually play BitD.

    Hi Allan,

    There's more discussion over at the forum. But I would emphasise that this is our experience, and clearly there are lots of people who love both the system and the setting.
