I used Flipboard way back when tablets were a new thing and it was clearly designed as a tablet experience. I didn’t click with it and I still don’t fully understand what it is but I’m surprised they’re still around.

“My game?? Buddy, this is your game, I’m just the narrator.”

Yeah, imagine that DM leads you to the BBEG lair and you try sneaking through the library and suddenly they say “ok so 1,200 explosive glyphs just went off, roll 1,200d20 to see how many you save for half damage, and then roll 3,600d8 for damage.”

I also want to throw Tabletop Playground in the mix. It’s like TTS but has a better user experience, and they didn’t disable global chat because someone talked about being trans like TTS did.

Do you have a magnet phone mount in your car? Works exactly the same way.

I second Fox in the Forest for competitive 2 player, and also recommend Fox in the Forest Duet for cooperative 2 player.

Funny enough, “cutting down on costs” and “not having a voice actor” isn’t actually what makes a good cartoon.

“Duck tape” actually has a longer history than “duct tape.” While there is also branded Duck™ tape, duck tape, as in adhesive cotton duck, has been around since the 1800s or so.

I played two games of Ravine back to back. Game 1 was like a Bear Grylls episode; here’s exactly what you need to do to survive, light a fire, find food, find shelter, make a weapon, get rescued, ezpz. Game 2 was like dropping a toddler off a cliff and yelling “good luck” as it tumbles inexorably to a very early grave. Lots of madness, very little opportunity to even get a foothold, zero fire and almost no resources. Chaos and death. Both were fun.

Ideally, my third game will be somewhere in the middle!
