  • Absolutely top notch!

    I came for the Runequest and will stay for banter. They have a chemistry that is impossible to fake, everyone seams to be having a good time and it’s really infectious!

Congratulations to everyone involved and I look forward to more. Thank you and cheers from over the pond!

    Hey just wanted to let y’all know I appreciate all the hard work you do. From the group to duet games y’all always bring the a game. You stay on point to the game better than most games I played in. You are always trying different games making it new and interesting. Which introduced me to games that I have not seen before and loved.
