United States3 years ago - Amazing Blades Actual Play
Was getting ready to run a game or Blades in the Dark so I started with their other AP the Magpies, I enjoyed it so much I had to follow them into the future and find out what sort of shenanigans their new crew would get up to in the Imperial City. I love how invested all the players are in the world. I am already recommending this to other people.
Apple Podcasts5NitekonUnited States3 years ago - Loved the Magpies, moving this
I was looking for non DnD actual play podcasts and looking for APs that weren't just a buncha guys. I'm so glad my friend told me about the Magpies and I listened through it super quickly. I'm only a few eps through this but I'm enjoying it a lot!!
Apple Podcasts5Darth PoseidonUnited States3 years ago - Great!
Great podcast! I’m reading the rule book to GM my own game. Perfect podcast to see the rules being illustrated and the players are very funny
Apple Podcasts5steveyp123United States4 years ago Excellent sophmore podcast by the clever corvids crew.
Podcast Addict54 years agoMoosenstein- Great Blades podcast
If you like Blades in the Dark, this is the podcast for you. Rhi does a fantastic job GMing and it’s really exciting to see Imperial City shown onscreen, especially with input from John Harper himself! The characters are all a blast and I’m excited to see what lies in the future for this group!
Apple Podcasts5Solohan50United States4 years ago - Roaring 20's style fantasy
Super fun and exciting adventures of a small gang being gay and doing crimes in roaring 20's inspired fantasy setting using the Blades in the Dark rpg system.

Canada4 years ago - Fantastic Blades in the Dark Actual Play
Rhi and company have just gotten this up and running, but it is easy to see how stellar this podcast is and will continue to be.
The storytelling and narrative are immersive, and the players are totally bought into and take part in crafting the narrative.
Highly recommended for all.
Apple Podcasts5EdCarr101United States4 years ago - What a magnificent time!
The City that Never Dies is absolutely wonderful. The PCs are some of the funniest role players I’ve listened to, but have the gravity to land the serious emotional beats. The GM is amazing at rolling with the various surprises thrown at them by the players and creates a vibrant and detailed world for them to play in.
If you’ve ever been curious about Blades in the Dark, there is no better place to start than by listening to this podcast. Soon you too will be looking at a situation and wondering... more

Australia4 years ago - Fighting the Establishment, one crime at a time
This show is equal parts exciting and heart warming. Great production value and audio quality. The setting is super interesting and both the gm and each player are engaging and fun to listen to. I’d give the show 10 stars if I could.
Apple Podcasts5Nick.RobertsonUnited States4 years ago - Excellent!
A great follow up to the Magpies BitD actual play, with a new set of characters (and a new player) and a new setting. Excellent listening because the system (Blades in the Dark) is great, but even more: the players take it seriously while also obviously enjoying the creation of their shared world. There’s fun and humour and seriousness and meaning.
Apple Podcasts5Mn200Australia4 years ago - Whiskey Jays in Imperial City
A fitting sequel to the Magpies, this series is set in Imperial City in the Prohibition era equivalent. “Let’s get started, shall we?” Great storytelling by the GM and the crew. Memorable characters, imaginative scores, highly entertaining.
Apple Podcasts5FanIrmiUnited States4 years ago - Great Blades in the Dark Podcast - Fun Twist
Following up on their excellent Magpies podcast, the group plays Blades in the Dark with a twist. Their series is set in empire's capital, and takes place in the equivalent of the Prohbition.
The story follows great characters as they try to make and sell enough moonshine to pay off their debts.
Apple Podcasts5Anne Onimous IIUnited States4 years ago - Excellent Podcast, Highly Entertaining
The cast of Magpies (plus newcomer Aki) continues on with this superb successor to the Magpies' adventures in Duskwall. In The City That Never Dies, the action moves to Imperial City, the heart of the Empire, with a new cast of scoundrels trying to get rich or die trying. It's still Blades in the Dark, but in a new setting. Time has moved on, and this is set during the 'Prohibition Era' where there are cars, and bootleg liquor.
The Podcast is very professionally done and highly entertaining. I ... more
