This week we take a look at the school life of our boys, and deal with the fall out from the cliff top party.
A reminder that there will be no early episode on the 25th, and no podcast episode on the 28th.
[Monsterhearts]: Twos
This week Vic, and Adam go to a party, and this get a bit full on in a game of Truth or Dare.
There will be no new episode on the 28th as we will be on holiday.
[Monsterhearts]: Zero and One
This is the session Zero and session One of our short Monsterhearts game. The session zero includes discussions of what elements we want to look at, what themes we want to deal with, and what we want to avoid. We talk about racism, sexism, and violence. We discuss safety tools.
Session One begins on in a dorm room, in a boys only boarding school, on an island. And the actually recording starts at 1h and 50m.
Two Sided Quest: [Mars Colony]
This week we explore the difficulties of fixing someone else’s mistakes, difference of morality, family stress, and the complexity of building a new world.
This is Mars Colony, a two person RPG by Tim C Koppang.
This episode was recorded in a rather resonant space, but shouldn’t be a problem to listen to. We hope you enjoy listening to this Two Person RPG.
Interview With Jason Tasharski
We recently spoke with Jason Tasharski about their upcoming game Stand In Defiance, and how they first got interested in game design. It’s lovely little interview, about an intriguing narrative game.
First Look: [Dragons Conquer America]
We were asked by Burning Games to play their new game about the colonisation of America by monsters who ride into war on dragons. It’s meant to be a game that deals with issues of exploitation and prejudice but honestly; I don’t think they take a hard enough stance.
We had fun playing the game, so I hope you enjoy listening to us fumble our way through temples, and jungles, and strange monsters. This was the first time we’d played a card resolution RPG on the show as well, so enjoy that. Continue reading “First Look: [Dragons Conquer America]”
Two Sided Quest: A Single Moment
This is the first episode of a new project from Ellery and Ray.
In this ongoing series they will play Two Person Role Playing Games, and discuss what they learnt from playing them.
The first game they played was A Single Moment, a game that attempts to emulate samurai movies about rival warriors. Continue reading “Two Sided Quest: A Single Moment”
First Look: [Angel Project]
Ellery, Caitlyn, Sofi, and Ray got together to playtest a bit of Angel Project.
Angel Project is an upcoming RPG from the folks behind Magical Fury (find more of their stuff here.) You play potential members of an elite fighting group. And through the course of play become armed with special armoured fighting suits.
It takes some elements of the magical girl genre and blends in more sci-fi elements, military hardware. For us a key touch stone was Bubblegum Crisis.

[The Deep Forest] Fae
CW: Violence, corporal punishment, kidnapping, colonialism.
We did a crossover of sorts recently. We had Lachlan from Fantasy Cartography on the show to play a little bit of The Deep Forest with us. It was a blast!
For those that are unaware, The Deep Forest is a collaborative map drawing game built off of The Quiet Year. It’s about communities reestablishing themselves in a postcolonial world. The hardships they face, and how they overcome them. Our game feature some violence, and a few absurd jokes; but we still played to the subject matter, so just be aware that it might be a bit emotional for some.

Good Society Interview
We had Vee and Hayley on the show to talk to us about their new Jane Austen RPG, Good Society. It’s got some really interesting setup mechanics that help you tailor the game to your groups style.
It was a pleasure catching up with them again. If you’d like to talk to them about all they have going on, why not head to Ettin Con? Vee and Hayley will be there running games.
