Brian and Elliot are joined by 10 Candles' creator Stephen Dewey who walks them through his innovative game and discusses how to best build a horror narrative and how to keep your players on the edge of their seats. 
These things are true. The world is dark...and we are alive.
This season on My First Dungeon we are delving deep into darkness in the tragic horror game 10 Candles. This isn’t a game about survival, there are no survivors. Our characters will die, without question and without quarrel. Instead, it is a game about hope, and how it can be found even in the darkest of moments.

My First Dungeon is the tabletop role-playing podcast where we put first-time GMs through their paces as we build and run their first adventure and then circle back around to discuss what went right, what went wrong, and how they can make their game better. This is a three part series. Episode one is all about prep, where we will focus on building the session, understanding the GM’s worries, and setting them up for success. Then it's out of the frying pan and into the fire in episode two where our nascent Game Master will run their very first game for a group of experienced players. Then in episode three we will look back on that first game and discuss what went right, what went wrong, and how we can improve.
