Whoa, this has been off my radar but I’m so into the absurdity of it. Apparently based on a mobile game? What am I getting into here. Apparently @plaidhatgames.bsky.social will have it at GenCon. I’ll cover it on the channel here soon.

Brumble Quest is an odd fit for the Plaid Hat catalog, a ten-minute prisoner's dilemma that plays with up to fifty people at once, although perhaps only with yardsticks or laser pointers.
