A Taste of RPGs: Goblin Quest

Watch AADL staff try out a series of tabletop role-playing games to get a taste of the wide variety of genres, play styles, and rulesets that exist today.

This time they are playing Goblin Quest by Grant Howitt -- a game of "fatal incompetence" involving goblins and an ill-fated adventure to... catch a pigeon? It's harder and deadlier than it sounds, especially if you don't even know what a pigeon is to start with! No real goblins were harmed in this video, but lots of fictional ones were.
