Emily made this game look so inviting and also so functional. The design of the cards and references pushes the game into "anyone can play it" territory. It'll be a great choice for anyone looking to get their friends or themselves into roleplaying www.kickstarter.com/projects/ada...

Not only does this game generate textbook locked room murder mysteries without fail (that surprise even the players) it also has a movement mechanic where the detective bounces around the map screensaver-style, and that's just good game design. Support a great game from a local Pittsburgh designer!!

Adam makes cool stuff. You should back this.
