Interview with Karen Twelves about Improv for Gamers 2e!

We were very excited to sit down with Karen Twelves to talk about the second edition of her amazingly informational book, Improv for Gamers. We learn more about improv and how it improves gaming and even try out one of the exercises. We’re really excited to see this project go up for funding on GameFound on April 5, 2022. If you go follow the project on GameFound before it launches, you’ll get an extra gift when it funds!

Learn more about the Improv for Gamers at the Evil Hat website or on Twitter!
