About this episode

In this episode, the hosts discuss The Dark Eye tabletop roleplaying game and share their experiences with its mechanics.

In this 36th episode of Analytic Dice we answer a few calls and then talk about The Dark Eye by Ulisses Spiele. Analytic Dice is a monthly podcast in which we, Kevin and Gabe, analyze a tabletop roleplaying game system or setting. Before recording each episode we will have played the specific role-playing game or setting under discussion. While there is no perfect system or setting, people do have preferences, and this podcast will explore our actual play experiences with different mechanics, revealing the great, the good, and our opinion on the pain points inherent in each system or setting adaptation.
