D and D hits Facebook

Heh. We can but hope, eh? :D

Oh yes! My character – Goryon, Level 2 Eladrin Wizard (and halfway to third) has ploughed through 5 adventures so far, managing to complete three of them successfully.

I love that it’s possible to fire-and-forget, setting your character on his merry way then checking back whenever you’ve got the time. I also like that it’s possible to micro-manage just that bit more by selecting when to use your potions. Add in lots of non-combat ideas that I’m going to pull into my 4e game, and it’s a terrific showcase for D&D.

Heck, it’s a better example of how to run Skill Challenges than I’ve seen to date. In effect, each Tiny Adventure is just that – a Skill Challenge.

Very clever indeed.

‘Course, I’d like more interactivity with some kind of choose-your-own path in there, and be able to play a Tiny Adventure properly as part of a group. Given the limitations of Facebook apps and the target audience though, I think over all it’s bloody good. Addctive too :D

Nope, still very much alive, though it looks like it’s getting hammered causing a timeout. That’ll settle down soon enough though.

Yeh, the new errata from Wizards’ sucks. They’ve changes the name of Neutral from Unaligned to Realigned. Poor blighters.

@Propagandroid, does any Encounter text appear at the bottom of the page when you click “Event is Ready!”? If not, it’s probably temporarily borked due to server load. Give it a little while and try again later. Patience young jedi – it’s nothing but a typical Facebook app rollout. It’ll calm down soon enough.
