Thank you so much for your kind words! I’m really glad to hear that the game is resonating with you :-)

To answer your questions:

By default, the Time Limit has a minimum of 6, meaning there are no Random Events at Default difficulty. However, the Time Limit can go lower at Easy difficulty. That said, you were absolutely right about there being a typo in the Scene Event table. I’ve fixed it and adjusted the table so that Random Events can occur at Default difficulty.

The updated PDF is already available for download.

Regarding moves in PbtA: unless otherwise stated (like with the Investigate move, which can happen only once per scene), there are no limitations on how many moves you can play in a scene. You can make as many as the narrative allows.

Thank you for your feedback, and I hope you continue enjoying the game ;-)

Thank you for the response. I know I am a pain in the ass, but I downloaded the updated pdf and I don't understand why now the 7 is repeated twice in the result column.

Can I ask you something I've been curious about? The Eldritch Town pdf refers to the “End Scene” move, but this move is not there in the Little Town pdf. I am playing my game using the move “Daily Review” instead of “End Scene.” From what I understand, the time limit rules were different before. Why were they changed? Does using the “Daily Review” move make the game easier or harder?

Thank you for being available. I love this game and will play it for a long time.

You’re not a pain at all! Questions like these help make the game better for everyone ;-)

Regarding the repeated range in the Scene Event table, I noticed that issue earlier today and have reuploaded the corrected file. Please download it again, and it should be fixed now.

As for the “End Scene” move, Eldritch Town was originally written for the first edition of Little Town. While it was also revised, a reference to the “End Scene” move was mistakenly left behind, but this has already been addressed. I appreciate you bringing it up!

Regarding the Time Limit rules: before the remastered edition, the Time Limit could increase or decrease at the end of each Scene. However, this could lead to very short games if things didn’t go too well for the Investigator.

The switch to the “Daily Review” move addressed that, but it doesn’t necessarily make the game easier. It does change the pacing, as there’s no longer a risk of failing the investigation after just four scenes.

I’m really glad to hear you’re enjoying the game!

Thank you for your feedback, and feel free to reach out anytime ;-)
