“Fantasy is nearer to poetry, to mysticism, and to insanity than naturalistic fiction is. It is a wilderness, and those who go there should not feel too safe. And their guides, the writers of fantasy, should take their responsibilities seriously."

if you go through the historical game studies record, you'll find attempts to strictly define games (generally around "goals" or "struggle") to be entwined with systemic racism, imperialism, and the enshrinement 19th/20th century patriarchal values
for games its especially important to understand the legacy of what games have historically been called not-games (i.e those made by non-men) and that when you call a game "not a game" youre building on that affect; its the equivalent of calling art "degenerate"

10 years of 2-player TTRPGs, and intimate one-on-one conversations. Thanks for coming along for the ride so far. Here's to many more parties to come.

If you'd like to quote-tweet this with kind words, or a favorite episode, or what you like about the show, I would appreciate it.

Party On, y'all.

Ithaca in the Cards: Second Expedition is a storygame about doomed travelers on a perilous journey home. It's inspired by The Odyssey, and blackjack, and it's about how you deal with loss and the vagaries of fate as you desperately reach for home.
