As a D&D player, that was my favorite part. The times when the party was getting creative and you could see the DM say, “Ok, roll for xyz to see if that works.”
So many times when I thought, “Yeah, I could see us coming up with that.” Followed by, “Oh yeah, our DM would definitely do that.” And yet it managed to have enough heart and be generally entertaining enough that your non-D&D friends will enjoy it too.
Especially the very beginning, where they come up with the crazy plan to escape, somehow manage to actually pass the persuasion check they didn’t think they would pass, then go through with the plan anyway because they worked hard on it.
