The game went well, Saturday night. It was genuinely fun, we were rushed right into combat after following a rainbow because Tasha ate a magical skittle.  Chris kept everyone engaged, moving along, prompting the people that needed prompting, yeah, I enjoyed it a lot.

Alden's char was birthed from the sky, pretty much, and was met with mistrust, initially.  The story took weaving twists and turns, and Chris had a lot of witty things going on.  Loved it.  I wish every game we played was like this.  I think the chemistry was really there, and it came out because Chris tried hard to engage everyone.

I can appreciate a sandbox setting, I love it, but there's times it doesn't work. When you have a few people at the table who aren't used to interactive co-operative entertainment, those people wind up sitting in the center of the sandbox waiting for something to happen, and texting in the meantime.  That didn't happen this time, everything was well paced, and now I'm hyped up for our next session, on Nov 5.

Even more hyped up for the space game.
