  • Charming, unusual actual play

    Personally I get tired of d&d actual plays set in faerun. This podcast is a perfect escape from generic fantasy settings. All three players are good actors with strong senses of their characters, and the system/setting is so fun to me as a fan of Jessica Fletcher and Miss Marple! Highly recommend this show for something different and engaging.

  • I love it

    I love this podcast, they all play there parts really well. One complaint is that it does not upload very often but other than that it is very funny and an amazing story to follow. I also noticed that during some stories there were very big gaps without a resolution, and I was very confused on what happened if you could fix that that would be great. Also they often get off track with the story. I would not recommend this to children it’s definitely PG/PG-13. If you are a child definitely get ad... more

  • Love it!

    I think the 3 ladies play their part extremely well. They play off each other well, their characters are well developed and Jonah helps everything flow along. I’ve been anxiously awaiting the development of the overarching spookiness and it’s finally coming to fruition, so excited.

  • Storytelling Success

    The best part of this show is how friendly the characters are with each other. I’d write more, but I started this review in the middle of an episode and I can’t focus with such a great story waiting for me.
