“This is my 3rd time listening through this podcast. Will is a magnificent DM, the production is memorable and doesn’t overshadow the story, and the PCs all conduct themselves true to their characters. You don’t hear forced joking throughout the podcast like you do in other podcast. This is a...”Read full review »

“Meh. Interesting setting, good DM but 6 episodes in and I think there were three rolls. This would be bearable but the Crow is always greedily taking the spot light leaving no air for the rest of the party. Feels like the DM and one player with some side kicks not a true group”

“Easily my favorite D&D real-play podcast. The DM does a fantastic job of creating vivid imagery and horrific situations, and the players excel at staying in-character and provide great descriptions and interpretations of their own.
I only wish this podcast would continue - it’s been several...”Read full review »

“Incredible scene building. Characters feel real. Dark and deep and I’m only just past the character origins. Well done all!
Up to episode 34. The dm is an amazing story teller! Terrible human being but an amazing story teller!
Welcome all to Turncloaks! Aka will loses friends.”

“Wow! I’ve never heard a D&D campaign quite like this one. Powerful imagery, beautifully bleak story-telling, just all around fantastic. I’m only on episode 2 (aka 4 of you include the origins) can’t wait to see this story through.
If you’re looking for goofy and happy go lucky, this isn’t...”Read full review »

“This is an Audio novel rather than a PodCast, lead brilliantly from the DM who makes you grit your teeth as he pulls the strings and guides the party into a deeply gripping adventure.
He is possible the best DM I have ever heard as he makes you twist and squirm in your seat as he bring twist...”Read full review »

“Horrific. Depressing. Brutal. Bloody. Riveting!
Despite the fact that we only go through half the story and we won’t get any more it is entirely worth the listen. Best role play of any actual play cast out there.”
