Natural Six brings gaming voice actors together for innovative D&D campaign with interactive audience participation
The Gaming Renaissance Meets Tabletop Adventure
A groundbreaking liveplay Dungeons & Dragons initiative called Natural Six has recently debuted, assembling an impressive roster of gaming industry voice talent including the iconic performers behind Geralt of Rivia and Clive Rosfield.
This ambitious D&D campaign showcases exceptional star power with performers from acclaimed gaming franchises. The ensemble includes voice actors from The Witcher 3 and Final Fantasy 16 among other notable titles.
Tabletop roleplaying games, particularly Dungeons & Dragons, are undergoing a remarkable cultural revival in contemporary entertainment. This resurgence owes much to influential media including Stranger Things, the critically acclaimed Baldur’s Gate 3, and pioneering shows like Critical Role that have popularized the format.
The official endorsement from Wizards of the Coast through their sanctioned film further validates this tabletop gaming renaissance. Consequently, digital series showcasing D&D adventures have emerged as highly sought-after entertainment, attracting fresh creative talent to the medium.
Branding themselves as Natural Six, this ensemble of adventurers has unveiled their Kickstarter initiative with an impressive promotional campaign. Similar to other successful liveplay productions, Natural Six comprises numerous recognizable industry professionals with substantial gaming credentials.
Meet the All-Star Cast of Natural Six
The Kickstarter preview for Natural Six highlights multiple familiar voices and personalities from across the video game landscape. This includes the legendary Doug Cockle (renowned for portraying Geralt in The Witcher series), Ben Starr (celebrated for his role as Clive Rosfield in Final Fantasy XVI), and Alex Jordan (recognizable as Mr. Hands from Cyberpunk 2077).
Joining the ensemble are Frontier’s Head of Influencers and Engagement Hollie Bennett, alongside Eurogamer’s respected presenter Aoife Wilson. Guiding this collection of talented individuals as Dungeon Master is Harry McEntire, whom audiences will identify as Noah from Xenoblade Chronicles 3.
Early previews from the inaugural session demonstrate considerable promise, with Natural Six seeking funding for a ten-episode season. To attract potential supporters, they’ve developed inventive reward structures within their Kickstarter initiative.

Innovative Gameplay: The Deck of Many Friends
The most innovative feature among these incentives is undoubtedly The Deck of Many Friends, which enables viewers to directly influence campaign outcomes through substituted D20 dice rolls. “This collection comprises twenty-two distinct cards, each unique, each symbolizing the essence of a previous adventurer,” elaborates Dungeon Master Harry McEntire.
“During critical situations, whether a party member rolls a natural one or an adversary achieves a natural twenty, the group can invoke the power of the Deck of Many Friends to substitute that roll with one from the deck.”
This revolutionary approach to audience engagement represents a significant evolution in liveplay entertainment, bridging the gap between performers and viewers through interactive mechanics. Unlike traditional viewing experiences, backers become active participants in the narrative’s development.
The strategic implementation of these mechanics requires careful balance—too much audience influence could undermine narrative coherence, while too little might reduce engagement. The Natural Six team has designed tiered participation levels to address this challenge effectively.
How to Engage with Natural Six
The Natural Six ensemble is scheduled to present at EGX London this week during a panel discussion introducing their project. While no specific launch date for the Kickstarter campaign has been formally announced, it will likely align with this gaming convention appearance.
For enthusiasts interested in supporting this innovative venture, several strategic approaches can maximize engagement. Monitoring the official Kickstarter page for launch announcements ensures early access to reward tiers, while following cast members on social media provides behind-the-scenes insights.
Common missteps for backers include underestimating the limited availability of premium reward tiers and missing early bird specials. Setting notifications for campaign updates and understanding the tier structure beforehand can prevent these pitfalls.
Advanced engagement strategies involve coordinating with other backers to maximize collective impact through the Deck of Many Friends mechanic, creating community-driven narrative moments that enhance the viewing experience for all participants.
