The Quarantine Games

Name: The Quarantine Games
Genre: gaming

Stuck at home during quarantine, Watcher's Shane Madej, Ryan Bergara, Steven Lim and Katie LeBlanc move their Dungeons & Dragons game onto a video call, running their own cameras and sound remotely. The campaign opens the classic way: a band of travelers crosses paths in a mysterious tavern, unaware that an incident is about to tie their fates together. It's loose, goofy and very homemade, a good fit if you enjoy tabletop gaming or already know the four from other Watcher shows. So what happens in that tavern to bind these strangers together?
