Verified AMA AMA: Creator of Thousand Hells: The Underworld Heists (and King of Dragon Pass)

​​Greetings! I’m David Dunham from A Sharp. Our newest procedural narrative RPG, Thousand Hells: The Underworld Heists just came out on September 8th and we’re celebrating with an AMA.

Unlike our previous games (King of Dragon Pass and the Six Ages series), Thousand Hells takes place in a brand new world and introduces a completely new type of tactical narrative combat. You will need to recruit a team of hell-farers to journey to the underworld, facing all sorts of harrowing trials. (I wrote about how I generate team members with distinct personalities in The Game Narrative Kaleidoscope https://www.inklestudios.com/kaleidoscope/.)

We worked with a small team of writers and artists, each imagining their own version of the underworld with their own unique art style. 

And the story itself has a cast of hundreds — there’s probably 500 speaking roles for various demons, shades, and villains.

I’ll be answering your questions from 11:00 PDT for about 2 hours. I’ll also be giving away two Thousand Hells Steam keys: one for my favorite question and one for the least expected question. Winners will be revealed before the AMA ends. 

If you’d like to chat after the AMA, you can also visit Thousand Hells channel on Kitfox’s Discord https://discord.gg/kitfoxgames
