PHENOMENAL game!! Just played this as a one-shot with some friends and we had a great time staging our play/heist. SCENE THIEVES' rules are lightweight and were really easy for us to pick up.

I want to specifically shout out the rules for resolving scenes, and how these change between Act I and Act II.  In our game, this created a fun balance between random chance and the ability for players to exert control over the story. The result was a very tense final few scenes as we all scrambled to rescue our heist from a string of failures, all while the characters onstage bumbled their way to a happy ending. Playing this game feels like watching an under-rehearsed comedy careen wildly out of control on opening night. Highly recommend!

Those are EXACTLY the kinds of moments I'd hoped for, and I'm so glad you all enjoyed yourselves! Bravo on pulling off both the heist and your play in the end, and thank you so much for your support!

I have to ask, how did you pick Die-Nasty as one of the example troupe names? My friends and I are all from Edmonton, and Die-Nasty is a longstanding local improv group here. When we saw that name in the book, we all had a good laugh.

I come from a theatre and improv background myself! I didn't want to just include conventional theaters in the list, so I included a number of improv troupes as well. They're ALL real, and I LOVE it whenever someone recognizes one. Earlier this month someone from Woolly Mammoth saw their company in the list and brought the game in to show coworkers, haha.
