It’s pizza, but not as you know it
Roll three dice and get all 3s!
That must mean it’s day 9 of the RPS Advent Calendar.
But wait a second.
There’s something funny about your dice.
You cheatin' me?
Oh, hang on, they’re just pizza dice.
What could it be but some Cosmo D?
Have a ball inBetrayal At Club Low!
Alice0:Most RPGs are too long.
Most games are too long, but RPGs especially.
Initial excitement will boil away as premises stretch thing, repetition develops, and busywork becomes evident.
Simple mission, complex task.
This is wildly inadvisable, but I enjoy feeling dared by the possibility.
More than many RPGs, Betrayal At Club Low is about dice.
Your emotional state is also dice, temporary buffs and debuffs coming in the wake of successes and failures.
It’s quite clever and quite fun how much gets reflected in these dice.
And the usual wonders are, as usual, wonderful.
I adore the look of these games, this garish and confident bricolage.
As ever, the music from Cosmo D himself is fantastic.
What a fantastically weird place.
Too many RPGs have two hours of good bits hidden unpredictably as rewards throughout a 90-hour scavenger hunt.
