An actual play podcast with a focus on queer storytelling. Join Becs, Helen, Jen and Sara for a series of short table-top role-playing games using a variety of game systems, including Thirsty Sword Lesbians, Kids on Bikes and Brindlewood Bay. Featuring fresh new characters for each game, some true chaos role-playing, jokes to make your mum blush, and beautiful LGBTQ+ love. If you like comedy-focused actual play podcasts but you want it more femme, more gay and more silly, you'll love Roll Plus Heart.
As our focus is on short-form games, you can start listening at any point. Some of our games are mini-series, which are best listened to in order, but the rest are mostly one-shots, which are entirely standalone. No need to catch up - just jump on in!
This is a world of gods...When danger strikes, will your gods reward your loyalty? Or will even they be impotent in the face of really poor human choices?
