Last nite was the first session of the online, chat based, Tunnels & Trolls game being run by Scott over at the blog HUGE RUINED PILE. It's in my blog list to the left (links are a PITA with the iPad). Scott has a nice write up of last night's session, so I won't bore you with a retread. Suffice to say it was a most excellent gaming session.
My son, he who is to shortly turn 18, stopped at my desk three times to comment:
"I thought you said you were playing a game? All I see is chat. You call this a game?"
Three times. I actually think he is interested. Fantasy Grounds he understood as a game interface, and he dismissed it as boring. Entirely chat based he found intriguing enough to stop at least 3 times to read the chat and comment about the game (or lack there of).
I think I may be able to draw him to the Darkside ;)

I just played my first solo T&T adventure yesterday thanks to your blog. I died quickly. :)
ReplyDeleteJoe, I hope you at least had fun ;)
ReplyDeleteT&T Solos can be fairly lethal, especially with the rarity of healing. The whittle down factor can be a real biatch.
Some of the new solos are a bit better... balanced? survivable? I'll have to do a post dealing with that when i can
I had fun, alright. I just need to find another 30 minutes or so and head back in and see if I can survive with a new guy beyond 5 areas. :)
