Over 800 miles, 20+ hours of hard driving and a precious few hours of sleep, but we made it back from KWAKCON and lemme tell you - it was a BLAST! We met a whole lotta really cool folks, gamed our little gamer brains out, ate a ton of great food, and laughed so hard that we cried on several occasions! Of course, we demo-ed Untold to a couple of tables full of awesome roleplayers, but we also got to play some Last Night on Earth, Shadowrun, Paranoia, and of course - Call of Cthulu!
Nan and her husband, Dave, were sooo unbelievably awesome and gracious hosts as a ravenous horde of gamers (Wandering Men included) descended upon their lovely home (and probably ate and drank them into the poor-house!), crashed on couches and on the floors and kept them up gaming 'til the wee hours of the 'morn. Thanks to the both of you for being such awesome hosts!
We got tons of mind-blowing feedback from the awesome gamers that sat in on our Demos; feedback that could very well change the face of Untold forever! If you're interested in keeping up with what's going on in that vein, then be sure and subscribe to our newsletter, because you can bet that we're going to be talking about it there very soon! Also, we met some folks who were very interested in Untold for other reasons, but that's something that we're going to stay mum on for a while yet. However, you can bet that as soon as we're ready to talk about it, those folks getting our newsletter will hear about it first!
