Bonus: Q&A with Josh McCrowell and His Majesty the Worm

Show Notes To tide us over til our next one-shot, here's a bonus episode where our host and GM Fiona chats to Josh McCrowell, the game designer behind ENNIE nominated 'His Majesty the Worm': A tabletop roleplaying game designed for dungeon crawling. 'His Majesty the Worm' is a new-school game with old-school sensibilities: a classic megadungeon experience given fresh life through a focus on the mundanities and small moments of daily life inside the dungeon. The Game Master is given tools to create a megadungeon called the Underworld and the players create adventurers to explore the Underworld in pursuit of their personal quests. Tarot cards are used as a randomizing element for the majority game mechanic within the system, from tests of fate and combat to designing and maintaining the dungeon itself!
