That's why we're hard at work on a Forgotten Waters Remote Assistant web app to help people play with their friends while physically apart. But it's killing me that people will miss out on the party atomosphere of those higher player counts for a while. Our pirate adventure game goes from 3-7 players in the box and has a super fun solo and 2-player variant ruleset inside the app (see below).

Forgotten Waters Remote Play Assistantįorgotten Waters ( still available for pre-order!) will be in fans' hands soon. So here are some ways that we hope Plaid Hat Games can make a positive difference by helping you game together while we're all apart.

I'm not a health care worker, or a government official, or able to provide food for others, but when people NEED to stay home, I can help by entertaining them, connecting them to others, making them feel good about themselves.

We've always thought that what we do makes a positive difference in people's lives, but at this moment in history, our efforts are actually, for real, important. In the most recent episode of the Plaid Hat Podcast, Niki, Bistro, Isaac, and I discussed how our households are holding up, and how we're feeling in this helpless state as we watch healthcare workers and other heroes act and hope for world leaders who are up to the task. Hi all! Joe here, Plaid Hat Games web guy and Forgotten Waters co-designer.
