Roleplay Retcon

A sleuther, a baker, and a content-maker collide during an investigation into the apparent murder of an energy corporation exec just outside the Norweigan city of Skarbe. None of them are supposed to be there.

Welcome to Rookie Camp, where we go over the movie we're remaking and the game we're using to do the job! This time we're remaking the 2017 Norwegian murder mystery thriller The Snowman, notorious for its baffling editing that makes the story almost unfollowable.

We're playing Gunpointing, an original game we made that's all about dramatic gunplay and noir detective vibes.

This is a remaster of Altered Beef, our playthrough of Jess Levine's I Have the High Ground, which was once a Patreon exclusive but has broken containment and is now Main Feeding.

The heroes of the very weird Sega arcade beat-'em-up Altered Beast (look it up) have saved the day, and all is at peace... except that God Dad has decided to make them decide which of them will be king. Surely they will figure this out like rational adults.

Content Warnings: Profanity, violence, death, violence against animals, gunfire

A newly-upgraded Metal Sonic stands in the way of Abracadabra and Starry's rescue.

We play Sonic Adventures, our original micro-RPG based on classic Sonic the Hedgehog games! Abracadabra the Orchid Mantis, Scruffy the Capybara, and Starry the Flying Fox are on a mission to save the world-famous Sonic from the Egg Fleet!

Trudy, Beatrice, and Sunday make it to the lighthouse, which doubles as Sunday's radio station and holds the thin hope of contacting the outside world. But the white fog still swirls through the town, and violence still fills the streets...

The Fog (1980) is one of John Carpenter's middling outings, but it's not a terrible choice for a cozy soft-horror night in. But its 2005 remake is unmitigated torture. So we're remaking a terrible remake of a sorta-mediocre movie with Ten Candles, a TTRPG that uses ten real candles that snuff out one by one until the doomed characters are enveloped in darkness.

It's 1980 in Antonio Bay, Oregon, a lakeside town founded by the passengers of the Elizabeth Dane 200 years ago. On the eve of the bicentennial celebration, a thick gray fog with swirling white whisps rolls across the town, and then chaos erupts. Town council members Sunday Smelt (also the local radio DJ), Mayor Trudy Roberts, and descendant of the town founders Beatrice Bradshaw each harbor a secret grudge against another, but find themselves fleeing the unnatural fog and crazed residents together.
