Join Peter and Frank for another Esoteric Devices episode, their occasional series which takes individual cards and explores how they disintegrate what we expect from Arkham Horror: The Card Game. In the first episode, it was Adaptable and Delve Too Deep under the microscope. This time it's a look at the 'mini quest' mechanic that's built into Strange Solution and Archaic Glyphs. How do they work and what do they mean for what we understand of the game?
ALSO: Drawn to the Flame's first event is happening! Listen to the end of the episode to hear how you can get involved.

Episode 49: Think on your Feet III
Join Frank for the third Think on your Feet, in which Sefina Rousseau continues to carry out tasks set her by Dr Henry Armitage. Will she find the dread Necronomicon? Just what are these delays on the train line to Dunwich??
In the Think on your Feet series, I endeavour not to edit much at all. Sometimes I cut a bit of shuffling sounds or abbreviate some of my longer pauses (a boy's got to think!), and I normally aim to pare out the bus sounds (buses? in the middle of a museum??) but otherwise, it's uncut, unaltered and meant to feel like you're with me at the table. There are mistakes and misplays a-plenty, but hopefully some successes too.
Here's the deck before Miskatonic Museum: https://arkhamdb.com/deck/view/114354.
Here's the deck before Essex County Express: https://arkhamdb.com/deck/view/114378.
Scenario 3 begins at 2 minutes. Scenario 4 begins at almost exactly 41 minutes. Thank you to everyone who wrote in saying the first live play was enjoyable, or encouraging me to do more. It's been very touching and I'm super excited to share these further episodes with you!

Episode 48: Year One
Just a measly twelve months ago, Frank and Peter settled down to record their thoughts about weapons and allies in Arkham Horror: The Card Game. At that time, the core set and the Dunwich Legacy deluxe were the only cards out in the wild, and your two hosts of Drawn to the Flame were just learning the ropes. A year's passed! What a difference a year makes. Tune in for an end-of-term episode when Frank reflects on Arkham highlights over the year and Peter loses himself to his favourite topic: flavour text.
