Dodecahedron 046 - Specialization

Guess who's back and super into the Internet Baseball League now?! Join Jesse and Giovanni as they take a deep dive into what Blaseball is and how it's like a TTRPG that thousands of people are playing all at once.

This week Jesse is joined by Karl, AKA Uncle Yo, of the Chroniclers of Darkness show, to talk about what it takes to turn a game into something fit for consumption away from the table.

This week Caitlin of Geek Oblique comes on the show to talk about the things that inspire us, and when we should or should not use them ourselves.

Amy makes a triumphant return to talk about what happens when a fantastical society tries to rebuild!

Jesse brings his friend and GM Ryan around to talk about some games you may not have heard of, with more of a focus on narrative than mechanics.

Welcome to Season 2 of Dodecahedron! In this first episode of 2019, Jesse brings in a special guest to talk about safety tools, convention guidelines, and how to deal with things like discomfort and abuse at the table. Content warning for mentions of sexualized violence.

Just here to make an announcement this week, no real episode. See you in the new year!

Nella and Raven from the Apocalist Book Club join Jesse this week to talk about the end of the world, board games, and what the sequel to Horizon Zero Dawn should be called. My money is on Horizon Zero Dawn: Verdant Historic Sonata!

Jesse is joined once again by Amy (with a guest appearance by a relentlessly squeaky chair), this time to talk about specialization as it relates to character, settings, and antagonists. Also books, teddy bear picnics, and noisy upstairs neighbors.

Jesse and Henry are here to spend some time talking about time, and all the various ways it works in and out of game.
