Grab some popcorn and watch us play Microscope

Want to see how I actually play Microscope? Now’s your chance: I don’t record games for the public very often. I think there’s only one other video of me playing Microscope, ever, back on Strix’s Weekly Affirmations show… ten years ago? I know Eric from back at Story Games Seattle, but I’d never met Bob or Pierre before. Which I think is a great demonstration, because it also shows you what it can be like to sit down and play a big creative game with total strangers. If we had kept playing I definitely would have added space jesus, the figure that delivers the alien message that caused the birth of the secret societies. And teaches them the psychic techniques they use later on. Alien space jesus: just your standard Microscope move. The kickstarter for the new Microscope is wrapping up in, what, less then two days? Time flies! Only in Microscope can you keep going back and expanding the past…
