The Otherplace: an Actual Play RPG Podcast

Talented and gentle GM leads 3 opinionated novices through a nuanced RPG world. The plot progresses slowly at times as the players role play and figure out the game. Bravo. Good production values Season 3 players: more shenanigans 😁

Started yesterday hoping to get a feel for the show. I'm 6 episodes in and every time I finish one I decide to go ahead and listen to another one. Great cast, cool story, really enjoying this show a lot.

Action! Adventure! Animation of the dead?! But with walking talking animal-folk?! Is this a trip into Neverneverland? A trudge through the Wardrobe into a C.S.Lewis novel? Or maybe a trip to Redwall? All these thought went through my mind as I was whisked away with the opening intro of the story to the Isle of Volk where we meet a trio of folk a soft spoken human, a stern eyed bird folk and dashing feline folk on a ship crewed by fish folk?! The trio are on a mission to protect the village from the dead that may come back to the land of the living? If you are looking for a unique story in a whole new world then come listen to The Otherplace! I was hooked from the moment I that Night Cast Creative started a new actual play rpg podcast using the FFG narrative dice system, it’s primo for storytelling and the GM’s are maestros, not just in storytelling And world building but music, as they write and compose their own music to accompany their fanciful Scooby-Doo-esque escapade! -A.J.Kimball

The Otherplace is a great example of a perfect actual-play rpg podcast. The world is immersive, creative, and unique. The players are a great cast of characters with tremendous chemistry, and the GM is a superb storyweaver, with the perfect balance of care for their players and danger to their characters. Get started now and you’ll be hooked. TL;DR: You’re life will be improved by listening to this podcast.
