3 DUNGEONS & DRAGONS

Or Call of Cthulhu, or Pathfinder, or Tales from the Loop, or Mausritter – you get the idea. RPG’s in general translate over Zoom incredibly well, as a favourable method to play even before the pandemic made it cool/ necessary. With a comfortabl­e GM, players will only need pen and paper (if that) to prep a character, and dice (or an online dice roller) to dive right into a whole new world. Plus, there are hundreds of online aids available, so for example a chrome extension exists to link D&D Beyond dice rolls from a character sheet straight into a Roll20 game. That means when asked suspicious­ly by the GM to “roll for perception”, and the entire group holds their breath, everyone gets to see what the outcome is with the necessary modifiers built in. It might be an obvious answer, but it’s great for a reason.
