One Shot Episode 26 Dungeon Dwelling Creatures with Eddie Bartlett
Friend of the show Eddie Bartlett stops by on this one shot episode to talk about his and John Watson’s up-coming DCC release, “Dungeon Dwelling Creatures” (DDC). This DCC-compatible rulebook puts players in the role of the monsters—and not that sort of cutesy “Oh I’m a cat-person,” or, “Look at me, my father was a dragon…” stuff. No, these monsters are grotesque, wicked little things like Orcs, Wendigos, Debiks, Hags and many more. Eddie talks a lot about the functional design of a game like this and gives us some insight into how some of the classes work, what “...

Dont Tell Mom and Dad with Ben Mazzochetti and Ted Gilbert
Luau Lou here. I have been waiting to do this episode for over a year. As many of you know, I publishing a rule set called “The Dare-Luck Club,” themed around misfit adolescents out on adventures. About a year into its run, I saw a product called “Don’t Tell Mom & Dad” on Kickstarter that just looked fantastic and was right in that same game-space. Since then, I’ve been trying to track down that game’s creators, Ben Mazzochetti and Ted Gilbert to talk about their take on this genre, all the cool design features of their system, and just talk shop...
