Episode 19: The Holidays' Episodes: Travel

In this episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, we discuss how to make travel an interesting storytelling device in your game. We discuss popular fiction as both good and bad examples of how to use travel, and offer suggestions for how to adapt those ideas without taking away from the rest of your game.

Special thanks to for this week’s questions of the week.
