      The Princess Bride! Sorry, I guess in my head it was inconceivable that everyone wouldn’t already know it.

            You can conceive plans and conceive ideas. So inconceivable fits here.

            Now, to be fair, I rarely hear it use this way in English. In Spanish, though. All the time. “You haven’t seen this movie? Inconcebible!”

          I check a dictionary and it seems to be a good word. Maybe slightly off compared to impossible for example but not a mistake.

          What would inconceivable mean otherwise?

      I actually really hated the book, which was a big surprise to me, since I love Princess Bride and most of Sanderson. But man, the narrator was way more grating and unfunny to me than Princess Bride’s.

      Sanderson usually isn’t funny for me, which is usually fine, but Tress relied on humor too much imo

        Sorry to hear you didn’t like it! I rather enjoy Hoid/Wit’s perspective but maybe that’s because I knew him before I read Tress?

        Edit: If you do not care for Sanderson’s humor avoid Alcatraz vs the Evil Librarians, it relies on it heavily!

          I’ve read all of cosmere, and I don’t care for Hoid in general, though there’s a lot about his books I do love. But I tried a few of his YA books (the chalk one, and reckoners) and didn’t especially care for them.

      My spouse and I have played a couple times. Everything’s decently made, we’ve had fun with just us, but I can see where having the full 4 would be the best experience.

      Can’t speak of the solo play. Kinda tempted to set the game up and throw the movie on for it one day, though.

    And a note for anyone who missed it, most of the original cast got together for a virtual table read of the script during the pandemic.

    [There’s also a pandemic home movie version with a whole bunch of actors.]
