Customer Reviews
A brilliant actual play podcast
I have limited patience with actual play podcasts and often give up on them quite quickly. City of Steel however is an exception. I watch my feed for the next episode with anticipation .
Absorbing and Atmospheric
I have completely caught up on all episodes of this podcast now and highly recommend it. Never having played the Dresden Files at first I let the mechanics of the game wash over me and simply concentrated on the story, which is very strong indeed. As the podcast has gone on the 'rules of the game' have simply made themselves apparent to me and I have to say I'm intrigued. It seems like a great system. Jay GM's with great skill, moving through scenes with enough detail to aid the imagination, but not so much that the scenes drag.
The cast are great, especially Eira the bad-mouthed knight of the Winter King, who creates a kind of no-nonsense, modern-day noir heroine with her character. Missing Parcival in the second story, hope he makes a return soon.
