I'm really enjoying the story and characters, but the blatant "borrowing" of so many elements from "Tale of the Manticore" is just really off-putting. You call it an experiment in storytelling. Jon used that phrase first. Your "entering combat" and "party status, "spells available" all from Jon. You're a great storyteller and the podcast is really well-done. I just wish you'd make it your own. Even so, I'd still recommend the pod to others.

I was willing to believe it “was as the dice willed it” when the first character rolled up a very decent rogue. But the rolls are clearly fudged … in particular, after rolling up the rogue, a fighter, and a cleric, the final character was a perfect archetypical magic user (with an INT of 18, no less).
“What a coincidence!!!” said no one, ever…

SftFW is a wonderful old school role playing game experience, told by a master of understated suspense. The tone of the world is gritty and grim, and death is never far away, but there's space for the characters to come alive, to relate to one another deeply, and feel real and important. This is the perfect way to experience the joys of solo gaming and actual play, a wonderfully written, performed and produced gem.
Podchaser59 months agocarl.white- Marvelous Solo Play
A great member of the ever-
growing genre of solo roleplay scene, Stories From the First Watch does well to balance excellent storytelling with gameplay with both great voice actors and musical accompaniments as well as a great look behind the GM screen.
Apple Podcasts5YungGrognardUnited States10 months ago Stories from the First Watch is one of my favorite solo RPG podcast. It beautifully captures the danger and risk that made old school Dungeons and Dragons so fun. It has traps at any dungeon master would consider stealing, intense combat that leaves you on the edge of your seat, and truly tangled intrigue to keep you interested.
