We faced the Fear of many, many, MANY people, but had the joy of meeting a huge number of both Cypher and Magnus Archives fans at UK Games Expo last week. We ran demos all day, every day introducing folks to how to play and GM The Magnus Archives RPG. Thanks to everyone who came to see us, catch up, and share the enthusiasm for this terrific game!
Podcast to Tabletop Seminar
We also chatted with Rusty Quill (creators of The Magnus Archives) and Sydney from Indie Boards & Cards (creators of The Magnus Protocol Mysteries) about converting podcasts to tabletop games. It was wonderful to see so many at this seminar, and great to be able to answer questions from folks interested in doing just this!

The Magnus Archives RPG Live Play: Or How to Avoid Getting Eaten by Your Own Podcast! was a great hit. Loads of folks turned up to see Gregor, one of our UK Asset Team GMs, run the folks below through the demo scenario:
