Ohh planning to get the cards! Whats the difference between DungeonMorph Crypts, Lairs, & Sewers Cards (black n white) vs Delver, Trailblazer, & Voyager Cards (blue cards)? The blue cards have 102 cards but black and white is 72. Would the delver be a better deal? but I totally dig the Black and White versions more. Do they make a difference on gameplay somehow?

Treasure seemed odd to me at first, but it's not bad, actually. You could just call it "resources." So instead of detailing everything you are carrying, you just use treasure. You need a rope to solve this puzzle? Spend treasure and pull that rope from your bag. Found a bunch of treasure after defeating a foe? Don't detail every item, just add to your treasure. Then, later, when you need something, spend treasure and say "good thing I found this after that last battle!"

I think this is the first review where you weren't particularly impressed with the game

Your videos are fire. Because they are clear, instructional, and very direct with a no-nonsense tone that is super digestible

This looked really good and I picked it up from Amazon over the weekend, really enjoying it so far and I hope there is a lot more content to come for this system as it is too good to abandon.

No longer on USA Amazon , is this coming back ??

Super helpful video. Really appreciate being able to see the different game books as you talk through them and hearing your thoughts. I'm one of those people on the outskirts of dungeon crawling games -- curious but more comfortable with the more controlled world of board games, but i'm so curious about keeping my eye open for a more hybrid game. Keep the videos coming!

Great video! I draw but I'm lazy, these books are great motivators. Thank you!

Seven years ago... intense fire I'd love to ask you about Japanese tank advance and if I'm observing all rules I'd love your company ❤

I set the game up today, I'd put all the pieces in labelled drug bags previously for convenience, and got to turn five before I was interrupted

According to the Middlekin page, there is a skill that removes 1 Hurt. What does this Hurt do to one's PC? Is this damage? What are the consequences of Hurt? How can one heal from it?

12 orcs? That's a suicide mission 4:25

Lovely video come at exactly the right time for me! Thank you so much! :D

Cool just picked up a copy

Great tips and love that last map book. I never thought about map borders, so simple but really make the map pop - so already I've learnt something! :)

TL;DW: too barebones, no quests, no locations, no world. Nice cards, but bare-bones and far too expensive in kickstarter by Ulysses spiele.

Do you own your own laminator? If so, which one?

awesome notebook with maps in it! JP Coovert is one of my fav content creators, i have both of those map books of his and more. Great vid! cheers

Great job! I want this game. Also, are you using a knitting hook as your game pointer? lol!!

I am interested in drawing dungeons in 3d and figures holding armor or weapons. Do any of these books illustrate how to do this? And 3d interiors of buildings?

Highly unlikely. I can't even draw a passable Snoopy!

Seems like weapons and equipment are pretty meaningless in Mazes / Return to Dark Tower. I assume there are no skills in the game?

Great topic, great resources, and great drawings! I think anyone can draw, and everyone should draw. It's a magical power we all have--to turn blank pages into worlds. Any skill level will produce great work if a drawing is: internally consistent, confident, intentional, and from the heart. That's why the Emberley method is so effective--it's extremely simple and easy to learn, but very internally consistent, intentional, and confident in its crudeness. He breathes so much life into a stick figure universe. Your drawings feel very from the heart. Keep doing what you do!

MAPS - my favorite things & you make some groovy ones that are useful and to the point! Make a World - I knew it was one of the books you were gonna recommend based on images. Inspiration galore and tons of fun! JP Coovert is groovy - really puts Emberley's examples in to practice. I did his dragon on a map for daughter and son-in-law engagement party, they loved it [it's hanging in their front room now and it is NOT fancy in the least, but they love RPG so it pleased them]. I really enjoy your maps!! Your evolving style is Fun and gets the important points ON the map so you can Adventure, and to me, that's what matters.

I had the Ed Emberly’s books when I was a kid!!! I’m grabbing that one, my copy was donated years ago.

Your drawings and maps look fantastic! Excellent video!

Huge fan of the Realm Fables books and the other stuff from Shieldice for stocking map/regions etc -- I would recommend looking at the Sandbox Creator booklet (it is A5) -- I have seen some JPCoovert on KZfaq, will deffo look at more and the "how to draw" book shown -- another great video GG :)

My drawings all end up looking like Salvador Dali offerings…the ones he threw away !

I love the notebook you're drawing in -- do you mind sharing where you got it?

Oh SNAP! Ed Emberly! That's some old school classic stuff right there! One of my grade school favorites!

Thank you for this video. It is very informative--- especially as I start planning a new d&d campaign.

"... does not turn out the same way." OMG, yes! Glad I'm not the only one. But, you know how to get to Carnegie Hall - practice practice practice. 3:15 Ed Emberley book.... wow. I played with the SAME BOOK waaaay back in Elementary school. Artists still use the basics of shape and line, and flesh out from there. Good for you to just go for it, acknowledge that it might not be awesome, but showing it anyway.

Interesting. I really disliked One Deck Dungeon, but this actually looks pretty cool. Thanks!

I love the dice from these games

Respectfully disagree on the 2d6 combat. I thought the shift mechanism gave a real organic feel to combat and represented fighting skill very well. That laborer with one shift point is noticeably less able to hit than mighty adventurer me with 2. Only one weapon feels like a limitation, but as you mention you get more and better maneuvers, and shift ability, so progress feels very real. Suggest people check out an actual play to see it in action.

you ruined me with your Fantasy Trip recomendation for solo haha, can`t find anything as fulfilling and I always end up playing Death test and the old Metagame programmed adventures. I will forever be grateful for that video of yours!

I loved One Deck Dungeon, even buying and playing the app a ton. One Deck Galaxy is an _entirely_ different beast. I tried multiple times, but ultimately gave up on it. I'd love to revisit it, but time is valuable and there are less frustrating ways to spend my time.

Here I was yesterday, looking at this game, and one of my favorite KZfaqrs comes with a video about it. Perfect timing!

Never liked the ODD series for diversity reasons.

was looking up this game and of course GG covered it! so excited about the new edition arriving hopefully soon. Thank you for making the aesthetics comments at the beginning. I so so wish more artists would pursue variance in fantasy art. it's very stale. Graham Cranfield's Heros Journey Home also stands out!

honestly those seeds are fantastic, I would purchase a small booklet of seeds of this quality.

Roll the dice, check the table, get that dopamine hit.

What is the thumbnail from. Like the artwork a lot

I wanted to take a moment to let you know that I read your whole book in an evening and I am so happy that I took the time to do so. Your emphasis on story driven play and why it is important is wonderful to read and super validating as a DM who tries to bring that to their games. I have so many players come to me, trying to systematize their characters, not realizing that so much could be accomplished through flavour and imagination. I appreciate your words and have really enjoyed reading them, thank you for everything you do.

HEY do you have files for those AI Cards you have? I would love to try that when i play it next (which is this weekend)
