Music: Pac Div - Roll the Dice; Keith Mansfield - Funky Fanfare.

Matt and Rob talk about what they learned from running Brindlewood Bay, what worked, what didn't, what to watch out for, and what you can learn and take away for your own games.
Hear the full episode (and more!) on our Patreon.

Almost everyone has house rules for their games, but are there house rules that are good for (nearly) every game? DMs Matt and Rob share over a dozen house rules from their games and their favorite systems that can (probably) be lifted and inserted into whatever TTRPG system your table plays.

Brew your tea, pack your knitting needles, and put on your most comfortable jogging suit because DMs Matt and Rob are off to solve the coziest murder this side of Cape Cod!
Brindlewood Bay is a mystery RPG that combines the Golden Girls with Call of Cthulhu using an innovative set of mechanics to sidestep the frustration of running a whodunit. Then, head across the pond to gothic London for The Between, an anti-cozy game using the same "Carved From Brindlewood" mechanics.
