#29 [FIRST LOOK] - Coriolis: The Great Dark

Hello and Welcome back to The Solo RolePlayers Podcast. Today on the show I am keen as mustard to bring out another new format for a spin. 

That first look, first touch, first flick of a new RPG is a magical experience. You (or at least I) skin things, stop at cool art, let out a 'wicked' under your breath for some fangled new dice mechanic, and let the beginnings of your first potential story in this game start to bubble up in your imagination. 

Not quite review, (definitely) not quite tutorial, my goal with this format is to give you a bit of a feel for what this game might be like to play and how I think about new systems and settings when i'm getting ready to play in them for the first time. 

Enjoy!
