Interview - Jamie Keddie - Designer of Random Encounter

Tyler was very excited when I showed him the kickstarter for this game and we backed it almost immediately and watched it just miss the funding goal.

Review - Random Encounter (2016) - IDW Games

Ty was excited about this game when it was on Kickstarter because the art was done by Jamie Keddie, an artist on Minecraft: Console Editions.  Unfortunately, the game did not reach its funding goal, and he was saddened.  However, victory was around the corner, as IDW games decided to publish the game!
