Indie Game Reading Club

Serpent’s Tooth

In Tucson with MadJay Brown​​ for a weekend of gaming, starting with this game from Ross Cowman​​ run by Aaron Feild​​. I’m pretty sure Aaron is Ross’ biggest fan in the southwest.

It’s an interesting game, and not at all what I expected. It’s sorta kinda gmless, very talky-talky, and wide open in terms of playsets. We played a superhero themed one, per this convention’s theme. The GM duties/authorities are split up into three sets, and in the course of play those authorities can be kind of fought over and taken from the facilitator. I didn’t get any sense of what the purpose of that is! But it was interesting.

I signed up for nothing and am just kind of floating down here. Should be interesting tomorrow when the day really gets started.

  1. I need to take another look at this one. It was one of the first games I KS’ed, and when I got it, I was all, “I have no idea how this is supposed to work”, shelved it, and never looked at it again.
