In 2005, Green Ronin
published a pretty different fantasy game called Blue Rose. It defined itself as
a Romantic Fantasy Roleplaying Game and it made a point of having social
inclusion and diversity as part of the setting and ethos of the whole game.As oftentimes happen, the game became in need of some updating and TLC and it
languished for a few years despite the fact that it was far from forgotten.Now the time has come and Green Ronin is once again gathering a team of
writers, illustration artists, game designers and the team needed to get a new
and better edition of the game out next year.For starters it’s expanding on the lore of the game and also changing its
system from True 20 to AGE.In Kickstarter at the time of recording this podcast, funded
and having cracked a few stretch goals, I decided to talk to its line and lead
developer, Steve Kenson, to find out more about Blue Rose and what we can expect
from this new edition.
Hope you enjoy the show!
