Game bios:

  • For the Queen: Created by designer Alex Roberts, For the Queen is a card-driven collaborative storytelling game that invites you to tell a dramatic narrative about a Queen’s journey with you, her companions! What will you learn about her (and yourself) along the way? In the end, will you stand for or against her?

  • Queen by Midnight: Created by designer and Critical Role producer Kyle Shire, Queen By Midnight is a battle-royale deck-building card game of guile, deception, and brawn! Six Princesses each feature unique tactics to battle for the right of the Midnight Court, but only one (and maybe their inner circle) will be the winner. Queen by Midnight: Quarter Past is an expansion coming November 13th that adds 4 new Princesses, a more streamlined table presence, and 2-player rules!

Creator bios:

  • Alex Roberts is an award-winning game designer, educator, and Registered Clinical Counsellor living on Lekwungen territory. Her games focus on mechanical elegance and psychological complexity. She is best known for Star Crossed: the two-player game of forbidden love, POP!, a live-action game about an online community of balloon lovers, and For the Queen, her card-based storytelling game of love, duty, and devotion. When not concocting lists of bizarre commands (sometimes known as TTRPGs), she can usually be found tinkering with her vintage video game collection or brewing a lovely cup of tea. Keep up with her antics at helloalexroberts.carrd.co

  • Kyle Shire is a producer for Critical Role by day, innovating ever-wilder shenanigans for Critical Role’s discussion show 4-Sided Dive. Queen by Midnight is his debut game released in 2023 and nominated for Best Board Game AND Best Art for the 2023 Tabletop Awards for its stunning art and delightful gameplay. Queen by Midnight: Quarter Past is set to release on November 13th, 2024, and expands on the Princesses of Twelvefold and is a delightful standalone game or addition to the base Queen by Midnight. Kyle serves as devoted attachĂ© to four cats and can be found performing on very serious live actual play shows such as Oops, All Himbos and spouting nonsense on social media @kyleshire.
