Anyone who knows me would be surprised to know I’ve actually never played roller derby. Violence on wheels? Seems like my thing. Thankfully, Roller Drama has come along to not only offer me a taste of the sport, but the drama and camaraderie that surrounds it. When it’s not getting tackled by its own UI shortcomings, Roller Drama skates on its characters, art style, and the near unbearable responsibility of being a team coach.
You take on the role of Joan ‘Jeanne D’Arc’ Galliano,, as a coach, you’re also worried about being respected and trusted. Giving you a specific role to play gives the narrative an interesting angle that made me think about choices beyond trying to get on everyone’s good side.
