To start out, I’ve got a confession to make: I’m a pretty big nerd. I know, I know, it’s hard to believe, but it’s true. I also like games, which might be a little easier to swallow. Beyond the tabletop board and card games I’ve been writing about here, I’m also a fan of video games, and in particular adventure and RPG games. Which leads me to a more legitimately shocking confession: I have never in my life played a Dungeons and Dragons style pen-and-paper role-playing game.
