Playing Catalyst on Roll20

COVID-19 has forced all of us to change how we play games. Although the intimacy of sitting around table has been replaced with the glare of a screen, there’s still joy in gaming over an internet connection. Besides video games, we have services like Board Game Arena to revisit our favorite classics and Zoom to share our purely analog sessions. My personal favorite is Roll20, which gives everyone a toolset to play a game, while still allowing the flexibility that is fundamental to a tabletop experience. I want to share some tips I have after GMing a few sessions of Catalyst through Roll20. If you’re looking for advice on how to handle Conspire and its hidden roles in Roll20, check out this playthrough we did with Eric Vulgaris.
