Escape the Dark Castle is a tough choose-your-own-adventure.
Pete and I had played it around six times before deciding to stream another playthrough to Twitch yesterday evening, with each attempt ending in failure. Even with friend-of-the-blog Nomad joining us, we couldn’t take down the final boss – although we came far closer than we’ve ever done before.
Why do I love tabletop games that are so difficult to win, so much?
