I joined my buddy John Brooks to attend #Dreamation. We had heard a few things about it from other folks at Games on Demand. Played some good games, some mediocre games but the highlight was playing #TheWard, a new PBtA story game by Kevin Petker. This game models medical drama/comedies and hit the tone right on. While we took it the drama route, the game is flexible in all the best ways other PBtA games are but still felt wonderfully specific to the genre (saving lives, interpersonal conflict, the one nurse that keeps the hospital from falling apart). Magpie Games I can’t wait to play it again, even if I have to wait until #GenCon.

Hey Drew Owen! I’d say that session of The Ward was my highlight as well! You guys really put the system through it’s paces and I’m glad it delivered a satisfying story.
I sure hope we get a chance to continue the story!
Also, I’ll be running #TheWard at Games on Demand at #PaxEast in March.
Cool, I hadn’t heard anything about The Ward in a while. Glad it’s still moving forward.
