Andrea Driedger of AdventureDice.ca

We speak to Andrea Driedger, owner of Adventure Dice and Communications lead for the Terminal City Tabletop Convention.
We learn how Andrea started Adventure Dice from a place of adversity, and developed it into a successful business and an outlet for her creativity.
We discuss how games can be used in the age of Covid-19 and how they must change to meet our current needs.
Andrea recounts how difficult it was to cancel TCTC. But rather than succumbing to her own disappointment, she channeled it into the first ever, virtual TCTC on Twitch.
