GAME TITLE: Masmorra: Dungeons of Arcadia
TEACHER: Tyler the "Tempest" Allan

I literally just received this game through Kickstarter this weekend. (Anyone seeing me at pgx with the big ol cardboard box, that's what it was) I'm hoping to get in another play before Tuesday so I can teach it better. Basically, it feels like a hybrid of munchkin and king of Tokyo with some dungeon exploring in the flavour of tile-laying mixed in. Every turn the players roll a set of dice that will determine what they do for their turn. Some dice help you explore, and some help you fight the random monsters that will pop up. (Among other things). The goal is to accumulate experience by fighting monsters, disarming traps and exploring larger and more risky rooms. As you gain enough xp, you unlock special abilities for your character.

The characters are the coolest part, I think. Since the game is made by CoolMiniorNot, naturally their minis are pretty cool. The base game includes 5 characters to choose from, and I also received an additional... 15? I think characters to really increase the variety. You have your standard fantasy trope characters, but also some that take liberal inspiration from other franchises including, but not limited to:

A frog knight
That assassin guy with the cool hood
That dark elf with the two swords and a pet Panther
Elvis

And many more!

Anyways, if that sounds interesting, feel free to sign up and we can stumble our way through it. I don't have a perfect grasp on the rules yet, but it's pretty straightforward.

Whoops, how'd I miss that!  I was thinking 8:30 but could be at 6:30 if that suits people better.
