Codex Volume 1 Kickstarter Special
The Gauntlet Gaming Community, which produces this podcast, is launching its very first Kickstarter on October 2nd! We’re raising money to create a beautiful hardcover book collecting the first 13 issues of our zine, Codex. This special podcast episode features Lowell Francis and Jason Cordova discussing the history and development of the zine, the Kickstarter campaign, and the future of The Gauntlet community. It’s a fantastic conversation. Enjoy!
Customer Reviews
Good show
They’ve got episodes about basics and plent of eps just about all sorts of other topics. A great resource for anyone wanting to learn about Dungeon World.
Excellent Dungeon World Resource
Full Disclosure - I’ve only listened to the Dungeon World Basics episodes. But on the strength of those alone, 5 stars. I’ve been deep in crunchy, rules-heavy RPGs for 30+ yrs. and this really helped me grasp a more story-telling rule set in a way that finally appeals to me.
Worth the listen to new or returning gamers
Great show to help those that need advice or just some good ideas to help jumpstart your games.
