Show Notes

To tide us over til our next one-shot, here's a bonus episode where our host and GM Fiona chats to Quinn Majeski, show runner of the Monster Hour podcast and the game designer behind Absurdia: A tabletop roleplaying game about absurd humor and surreal horror.

Absurdia is an modern fantasy roleplaying game about the inane hilarity and understated horror of everyday life. Inspired by works like Welcome to Night Vale, Alice in Wonderland, Gravity Falls, and the Twilight Zone, Absurdia is an opportunity to indulge in the surreal and outlandish while subverting the absurdity of modern society.

In Absurdia, players take on the roles of peculiar residents of an unassuming suburban town turned upside down by entropic chaos. They’ll contend with occult bureaucracy, a megalomaniacal PTA, sentient cars, malevolent garden flora, a non-Euclidean network of back alleys, and the occasional extradimensional cosmic horror in a darkly idyllic community.
