  • A magical story!

    A bunch of friends come together to play as friends in the wizarding world. Their own story outside the books comes to life in this TTRPG, and is very enjoyable to listen to. A good podcast to listen to while doing simple life things. Give it a listen.

  • Quirky and delightful!

    A ragtag group of friends attend their first year of Hogwarts, and of course, mayhem ensues. Getslete with “totally true” wizard advertisements, this actual-play Harry Potter RPG is definitely quirky, often hilarious, and full of a lot of love for the wizarding world and for each other. Extra bonus points for non-binary character representation!

  • Great listen!

    This is a great combination of both D&D style tabletop games, Harry Potter Universe and all around humorous listening. A great listen for both either D&D fans, Harry Potter Fans or both!
