Staged Heroism RPG - Episode 254 - 3-25-2022

Shane Plays Geek Talk Episode #254 – 3/25/2022

RPG designers John Kennedy (Star Trek Adventures, Stargate 5E) and Sharene “Madfishmonger” Gilchrist (Capers, Vast Kaviya) join to talk their new Staged Heroism RPG: A Comedic RPG of Super-Heroics, Super-Villainy, and Failure at its Best inspired by shows like The Venture Bros. Plus: Designing not to fail forward, but to embrace the fail. The Roger Rabbit style of gameplay. Flashback scenes as a game mechanic. Venomous monarch butterflies. Where did Sharene get her nickname? Cops raiding a Vampire LARP session. The design philosophy behind Star Trek Adventures. John gets a no-prize. Everyone is entirely too amused by the Burger King Kids Club.
