Podcast | Spellburn

The judges, Jim, Jobe, and Jeffrey, have journeyed to Lake Geneva, Wisconsin to attend Gary Con 6. We’re still busy running and playing games, but we wanted to share some of the awesome with our listeners. On Friday morning, we recorded the “What’s happening at Goodman Games” seminar. No spoilers, but you don’t want to miss this one. We’ll return in April with our regular programming.

The biggest selling points of the Dungeon Crawl Classics RPG aren’t just its old school vibe, easy-to-learn mechanics, and gonzo play style – it’s the art, which visually embodies all of these qualities in spades. Tonight, we’re privileged to talk with one of the primary architects of the visuals for the DCC RPG world and the voice of DCC himself, Doug Kovacs.

This week on Spellburn we drift a little from our talk purely about Dungeon Crawl Classics and branch into topics about OSR gaming in general. First up is a look at how players and judges react to a system where everything is not codified. DCC RPG gives the game back to the judges and throws off the shackles of “rules heavy” games. What does this mean for players and judges of the game?
