S2E9: Narrative is the Jelly: The False Binary of Fiction and Crunch

S2E9: Narrative is the Jelly: The False Binary of Fiction and Crunch

This week, Todd, Nick, and Percy dive into a recurring theme in discourse about tabletop role-playing games: fiction-forward games and "crunchy" games. They dissect what these terms mean, discuss their own takes on the value of each approach to game design, and try to locate Blades in the Dark within that spectrum.

Dungeons + Drama Nerds is produced by Todd Brian Backus, Percival Hornak, and Nick Orvis, and is mixed and edited by Anthony Sertel Dean.

Our Blades in the Dark campaign features Elliot Peterson as GM, T.P. Huth as Princess Mirena Alonda Gracielle Valerio of the Grayfire Line, Whitney Lehn Meltz as Wick, Nicholas Orvis as Milos Jeduin, Dex Phan as Gabe, and Ran Xia as Ellery Crow.
