Alex and Lara have a great big list of ludicrous RPG ideas and we’re going to make all of them. Every week we roll up a random suggestion, like “What you think Naruto is probably like” or “The golden age of piracy atop water-dwelling kaiju.” Then we figure out how to make turn that into a game. Then next week we’ll live-play it on Twitch, and see what happens.

    Gail Force

    What, no Alex? That's right, he's been banished to the place of dust and shadow, leaving behind Lara, friend of the show Ash, and most importantly, Gail! And gosh, is Gail ever here, because in this game you will be playing an entire multiverse's worth of iterations of her. Evil Gail, clown Gail, aquatic Gail, puppet Gail... the gang's all here, ready to explore the most dangerous regions of space and die trying. The Prompt: All PCs are Eclipse Phase-style forks of the same individual. Special Guest: Ash Cheshire

    Cyber Castle Digital Dracula

    Episode Notes In this episode we’re doing something a little different, as our very first Reverse Unplaytested! That’s right, instead of rolling off the Big List, guest designer Lucas came to Alex and Lara with an idea, so that we could help him turn it into a game. What if Dracula, but also cyber? The Prompt: Cyber Castle Digital Dracula Special Guest: Lucas

    Kalon, Absolute, Apotheosis

    Episode Notes Gosh, we hope you A) liked Animorphs and B) only kind of remember all the details about Animorphs, because Alex and Lara and special guest Legendary Vermin are going to talk a lot about Animorphs and then make an Animorphs game that's actually a, uh, god's eye view competetive civilization game? Y'all, it makes more sense in context, but that doesn't actually mean it makes sense. Prompt: Animorphs, the roleplaying game Special Guest: Legendary Vermin

    JAGS

    In this episode, Alex and Lara are joined by Mariam, and the three of us have been presented with a prompt inspired by a fairly recent System Mastery episode about a game that needed more jacked shirtless animal gods in it. And so we have provided, along with just a radical number of double-entendres. The Prompt: Jacked Shirtless Animal Gods Special Guest: Mariam

    Max Bandwidth

    In this episode, Alex and Lara are joined by our first Orange Groves sibling, Chris, and together we are striving to recreate the experience of REAL hacking, as revealed to us in movies of the mid-nineties. Rezz up your cyber-rig, and let’s get… hacky. The Prompt: Swordfish or Hackers style hacking based rpg that doesn't use a f***ing block tower Special Guest: Chris

    Soul Crushers

    In this episode, Lara and Alex are joined by Kira, and talk about the video games we’re playing right now, and then smash them together like children playing with action figures, except the action figures combine into an RPG about fighting the physical manifestations of your own sadness in a corporate cloud city whilst observed by interchangeable god-narrators. As you do! The Prompt: Everyone say the last video game you played. Combine them all into an RPG. Special Guest: Kira Magrann

    Nox Apud Operarcanum

    In this episode, Alex and Lara are joined my Monica and tasked with approaching the complex topic of gay wizard drama, emphasis on the DRAMA.

    What Happened to the Moon?

    In this episode, Alex and Lara are joined by Jasmine, and together the three go face-to-face with time itself, with a game challenge that proves that, while you don’t need to respect the linear flow of time while designing a game, it sure as heck makes things confusing when you don’t.
