Wyatt, I'm so sorry I didn't see this sooner! I'm checking to see why the Discord link wasn't working, will do everything I can to streamline this process for future folks
Here's the current invite link! I'm not sure why it's giving so much trouble here on Itch, but it seems to work if you copy and paste it into the url? Please lemme know if it doesn't work as I try to determine what it is that's causing a problem https://discord.gg/3UKbQJwc4D
On page 145 it says "ask each player questions about this NPC" but no prior NPC has been established. The thing immediately before it is asking them to roll on the district table, and then beneath that there's a blank, so I think it's missing a graf of context. Great job otherwise!
Thanks so much for reaching out, leftwordmovement!! I'm so glad you're digging into the game and thanks for flagging this, I 100% see where the confusion's coming from! If you look at the last paragraph on page 144, it's talking about letting players zoom in on the day-to-day life of a mage in one of the districts. The district table on the following page is there to help people randomly choose a district if they want. Then we progress to the prompts asking questions about the NPC we're getting attached to right before we kill them brutally at the beginning of the end! Please let me know if you have any other questions!
Hey Draco2k! There isn't a Discord at this point, but one may be forthcoming. In the meantime, what questions do you have? I'm happy to answer them to the best of my ability and they'd also be good to know from a QA perspective!
Hey Volksy! It was an absolute pleasure talking up the game on there with Rob and Matt, they're both excellent and the show is, too!
As I understand it, Itch doesn't provide print on demand services and the overhead costs involved in paying for a print run of Ivory Tower keeps me from having any immediate plans to move the book to print. However, should there be enough demand for the game I'd love to make it happen!
First of all, thanks so much for publishing this amazing concept. I plan to run a game exploring your system in the near future, and hoping to integrate it into a wider spycraft/statecraft campaign further in the future!
I completely second Volksy here, I’d love to purchase a physical version of Ivory Tower in the future. I’ll keep a close eye on the project!
Hey Sean! Great question, and thanks for asking. There will be sales in the future and a new community copy is added to download for free anytime someone buys a copy of Ivory Tower.

Hey there! I recently bought the game and wanted to see if you had an updated discord link, the onle on the page seems to be broken.
I have questions on how to run the game and plan on it soon. Can you please help me out?

If you could also let me know when the discord link is working that would be great. Thank you.

Copying it worked. Thanks!

Hello! Any chance of a single pages version of the pdf instead of spreads?
Hey! Great question. I'm looking at getting a single page version done, but it's still pending! I'll keep you updated as development comes!
page 30: "These stats are broken down into three categories: resistances, skills, domains, and knacks."
that appears to be four categories.
Hahahahahahaha
Absolutely love this comment. You're so right. I'm gonna go fix that now. Thanks for the heads up, weiwithwords, appreciate you
i have some questions about certain aspects, is there a discord to be seen?

Heard about this on the "Dungeon Masters of None" podcast and it sounds amazing! Will you be releasing a print version of the book?

This is cool, but a bit hard on the wallet. Do these type of things every go on sale?

Lemme know if you've got any other questions!
