Fortress Party 2023 Retrospective

Dear Friends,

Welcome to another new year! The latest Hard Taco song, "Home Away from Home," is about wanting to make others feeling welcome no matter what and no matter when.

As per tradition, the January Hard Taco Digest is being replaced with a retrospective of the most recent Fortress Party. We estimated 358 guests this year, not counting interlopers who snuck past the checkpoint without their heads exploding. 

Traditionally, Scarlett leads the walkthrough tour, but she was stuck in California until the following weeks we asked Malcolm to give it a try. 


There's a lot of content that didn't show up in the walkthrough, so we made separate blog posting for most of the rooms. I'm also including a timestamp to the YouTube video above if you just want to check one of them rooms out without watching the whole thing.
