Step back for a moment to 1993, and remember the awe that filled your mind when you got those first glimpses of that ill-fated park, hidden out on an island. I know I'm not the only one who's wanted to explore that as an RPG playground, and until now, the choices have been rather limited. But the ttRPG world is ever-adapting, and this week we bring you a conversation with Zac Goins, the lead on a project called Raptor Ruckus!

This week we're joined by Wil, lead designer on a team that's re-imagining an older game, called Tribe 8, published by Dream Pod 9. He and his team, which includes Logan, co-host of The Story Told podcast, have taken their love of Tribe 8 and meshed it with the modern Forged in the Dark mechanics to bring this deep, rich setting back to life! It's dark, supernatural, post-apocalyptic fun, waiting to be experienced by anyone who dares. Currently, they're running a Kickstarter campaign to fund the final art and logistics of the game, and Wil and I had a wonderful chat about it, so listen, enjoy, and, if you're so inclined, support!

This week I'm joined by by friend Daryl, who's also part of the How We Roll podcast to have a chat about what we think game designers "owe" us when we buy a game, or maybe more accurately, what we think we can expect when we buy a game. it's a good, fun discussion, so listen in, and then swing by the discord and let us know your thoughts and expectations! d20 Network Spotlight: How We Roll -- https://howwerollgaming.com/podcast/ And check out their other podcast Casual Nerdity -- https://zencastr.com/Casual-Nerdity-The-Podcast Game of the Week: Daryl: The End of The World -- https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/141786/the-end-of-the-world-zombie-apocalypse?affiliate_id=2018399 (yes, that's the link to the zombie one, the links to the other 3 should be in the sidebar on DriveThru) Steve S: The Fat Dragon Guide to Printing FDM Miniatures -- https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/524045/the-fat-dragon-guide-to-printing-fdm-miniatures?src=hottest_small&affiliate_id=2018399 *We have an affiliate link with Drive-Thru RPG.

Imagine if you will, a game inspired by Judge Dredd, Robocop, GWAR, and the Toxic Avenger. Oh, wait, you don't have to. It already exists! I have gotten to play it, and I own a copy of it, and it's a whole lot of fun, and this week, I'm joined by it's creator Brian Shutter! So come hear about all the cool, neo-80s inspired, post-apocalyptic fun that can await you, should you choose to try it!

This week I'm joined by someone who I've had the pleasure of meeting a couple times in-person, and who is also behind a service that I very much enjoy using. This week it's a conversation with JJ from the team behind RPGSessions.com, which is a website/service/VTT specifically designed for the narrative dice system games (Star Wars and Genesys). While I love playing games online, I don't particularly love using VTTs, but RPG Sessions is kind of an exception to that, but to find out more, you'll just have to listen to the conversation!
