Tabletop roleplaying games, or TTRPGs,

00:02

are kind of like improv theater, but with some

00:05

structured rules and an element of random chance.

00:08

It can be a lot of fun to gather around

00:09

a friend’s table and tell a story together.

00:11

And it can be emotionally rewarding, too.

00:13

In fact, a lot of players like to joke that TTRPGs

00:16

can be just as good as going to therapy.

00:18

And the therapists… they noticed.

00:20

Not only that, but some of them agreed

00:22

and started researching how to really,

00:25

actually turn tabletop games into therapy.

00:29

For real. Here’s how.

00:31

[♪INTRO]

00:34

If you’ve heard of any TTRPG, it’s  probably Dungeons and Dragons,

00:38

or D&D for short, with its  elves and dwarves and goblins.

00:42

And dungeons! And dragons!

00:43

But there are actually a ton,  from D&D’s cousin Pathfinder,

00:46

to spooky investigation games like

00:48

Monster of the Week or Call of Cthulu.
