Known Territory: Ep 3 The Between

Welcome to another episode of our new series on the Around the Hearth podcast feed: Known Territory: GMs Talk Games. Each episode we sit down with an experienced game facilitator who has played a specific TTRPG extensively. They will discuss how they pitch the game, best practices for running, useful tools, potential pitfalls, and more.

This time we have designer and facilitator Mads aka madelancholy. They're here to talk about the classic Carved from Brindlewood TTRPG for Victorian horror and mystery: The Between. We talk about how to pitch the game, handling the different phases, the power of the Unscene, and much more.
