Description
In each episode as selected guests run through their RPG history and try to construct the perfect Role Playing Game. Each of the limbs of the game need to be harvested and then stitched together - ultimately I, Professor Frankenstein, will flick the switch to see if "It Lives!"
Join me and Igor and our carefully orchestrated guest list of grave robbers for a little light discussion!

Joining me in this episode are Kat, Paul, Matthew and Mark as we look back to the London Episode of Series 3 and try to flesh it out, look for improvements and begin to link with the other scenarios to form...A WHOLE CAMPAIGN???

Bit sweary this one - sorry, a little end of term madness descended!
Join me and Dr Sir Paul Mitchener as we discuss the latest epsiode of the main Podcast and he has to adjudicate the winner of the latest episode within the campaign of the Great North Road.
Here, he casts his beady eye over Kat, Kaye, Doc and my contributions - enjoy!

Another wee episode where Dr Sir Paul Mitchener and I examine the Panel's conclusions from our Newcastle episode where Tasha and I tied for the outright scenario but Jim managed to get his "Big Wow" moment in.
We're a little interrupted in this one but hope it's not too disjointed!
Thanks again for sticking with us! It's going to be fun!
So I'm joined this episode by Tash and Jim Mozley and Lee Carnell - you can berate them here:

And of course, the reason we are all here - Liminal the game - https://www.modiphius.net/collections/liminal
In this episode we update Paul Mitchener - the man behind Liminal - on just how badly we mangle his game!
We talk a little about what we've said, how the vote went and occasionally ask him to break a deadlock and make sure the narrative goes foward nicely.
As these go on we may get into a more detailed discussion about structure, narrative and inter-connectedness, but for the moment it's just two gents having a natter.
Hope you enjoy it!
This episode I'm joined by Nouk, Mark and Martin and we're looking at the area surrounding Doncaster and Wetherby!
Who knew we were EXACTLY half way to Edinburgh?
The panel go mad with creativity and we even manage to get a bit of social commentary in too!
Apologies for the dog howling and general disruption of the episode.
Hope you enjoy it.
Please find Chimpions here: https://chimpions.co.uk/ which is brilliant.
In this episode of our catch up with creator of Liminal Dr Sir Professor Paul Mitchener we look back at the latest episode surrounding Newark and sit back an watch Paul cry as we have once again ruined his game.

Take care,
Dr Frankenstien.
So in this episode we find ourselves in and around the historic town of Newark - it's here: https://www.google.com/maps/place/Newark-on-Trent,+Newark/@53.0711769,-0.8376228,12.37z/data=!4m6!3m5!1s0x487834455e4590d7:0x2fa6a5583441f3c3!8m2!3d53.0744766!4d-0.809773!16zL20vMDE4MTd2
Debbie, Huw and Wayne join me in this episode's game of cat and mouse to try and find the perfect next scenario for our Liminal Campaign which we are building. This podcast specialises in mad endeavours and this one is not about to break the mould! We are making a Campaign for Liminal based around the Great North Road and the coming of a new Monarch to the UK! The timing is just unfeasible right???
You can buy Liminal here: https://www.modiphius.net/collections/liminal
And finally our music is provided by the fabulous Freak Fandango Orchestra under license and their work can be found here: https://freakfandango.bandcamp.com/
Enjoy!
So I am again joined by the Brilliant creator of Liminal Dr Paul Mitchener to discuss the latest way in which our contributors have mangled his wonderful game!
We review the choices put in front of us by Tamsyn, Matthew, Ed and Peter and then I inevitably get Dr Mitch to vote on either the winner of the scenario idea or the Big Wow moment!
This episode again doesn't disappoint as we lurch from South Mimms to St Neotts via Knebbe Wurde (say it out loud!) and delve into the horrific stories behind nursery rhymes! Eek!
Sound track comes this time from the wonderful Freak Fandango Orchestra - you MUST check them out here: https://freakfandango.bandcamp.com/ and is used by agreement and open license.
AND ALSO Ed - with his unbelievably good solo and musings on the titular character!
Brilliant. As always find us @FrankensteinRPG on twitter (until it implodes!)

An infrequent series of one to one's with the creator of the Liminal RPG where I feed back to Paul Mitchener what we've done in this last episode and take his views or additional observations and thoughts on how the campaign is developing.
As he himself says "Glad I don't have to write it!!!"

Welcome again to another new loop or addition for the Frankenstein's Role Playing game podcast - MITCH'S CORNER! Where I get to talk to the creator of Liminal, Paul "The Tweedmeister" Mitchener, about the most recent episode of the main podcast.
These may end up being an infrequent mini-series, mainly because I would like Paul to be involved in as many episodes as his time allows so will hopefully address most of the items that come up for discussion.
So welcome to this ep, I am, as you can probably tell, a little bit giddy and giggly, but I've been so pleasantly surprised by the pod and the way it has taken a new turn - and hopefully a good turn! After all, this could have been the difficult THIRD ALBUM...
Hope you enjoy it and are as enthused.
Also apologies to Nouk, Martin, Martin and Ralph as I managed to get all of their contributions and embellishments wrong! Oh well, at least I'm consistent.
This episode I'm joined by Nouk, Ralph, Martin C, Martin G and for a very short time by Mark, as we look into the foundations of our New Quest(TM) to build a Campaign; this time it will not be from the best parts of other campaigns - That would be madness! - but by coming up with our own ideas.
This is all going to be about the Liminal Game from the pen of the Tweedmeister himself - Paul Mitchener.
You can find Liminal core book here: https://www.modiphius.net/collections/liminal Along with the two companion books Pax Londinum and Weerewolvs of Britain by Neil Gow and Becky Arneson respectively.
The shows a beast but I hope things will get better!
You can find us on @frankensteinRPG on twitter and you can always leave a voice mail for us on the Anchor website.
Hope you enjoy it!
This episode we're mob handed!
We have the two Pauls and giants of game design @PaulFricker and @TheTweedmeister
Fictoplasms very own Ralph Lovegrove @fictoplasm, Cartographer @JimjimTheGrim the inimitable @mcookie123 as well as debutantes @nanoukcakabra and @huwbowen - so Paul, Paul, Ralph, Jim, Martin, Nouk and Huw all terribly shy and quiescent.

Our music is taken from Open source and is the Fabulous Freak Fandango Orchestra - please check out their work here: https://freakfandango.bandcamp.com/ They are a truly marvellous collective.

Excellent podcast! Quick feedback: please, PLEASE stop laughing so close to the microphone (or screaming occasionally). The mic pics up the loud laughter and it forces you to lower the volume to compensate–with the result that you miss the real conversation
