This week, we’re playing Heimlich & Co., a modern issue of a clever espionage-themed game originally from 1984 (you may know it as Top Secret Spies, Under Cover or Detective & Co.).

Over on our Patreon, folks who back us at the $25 level get to call the shots for an episode. This week, Sara Clemens asked us to cover Mouse Guard, Burning Wheel’s RPG adaptation of David Petersen’s beautiful comic series. Over the holiday break, we made some characters and ran the game so we could give you our impressions. It is pretty cool!

We wrap things up discussing Stu’s recent experience setting up a Blades in the Dark game on Roll20.

If you want to buy any of the stuff we mentioned on the show, there’s a pretty good chance our sponsors at Noble Knight Games have it in stock!
