Stories set in space, the distant future, or other distant locales.
SPECIAL EPISODE! As we take a week to rest and recover from a busy schedule, enjoy this special live recording–the first in our monthly live showcase at Unity Java in Philadelphia, PA.
GO BIRDS! For our first ever installement of Party of One Says GO BIRDS, I sat down with my dear friend and certified Coheed & Cambria superfan Dillin Apelyan (ONE SHOT, Patchwork Productions) for a game of The Dark Sentencer by Marn Lastname.
Malcolm is the Creative Director at BRINK Media, and co-creator of This Is Propaganda, a narrative nonfiction podcast that breaks down the hidden influence of propaganda in our modern lives, and how propaganda (or as it would come to be known, Public Relations) have shaped our entire culture today. We sat down to play Blister City, a game about the bloody realities of Martian revolution, and about taking back the world from the fascists who control it.
The folks who ruined Mars have names and addresses. You have a crowbar, and a dream. Make them pay.
BONUS EPISODE! Enjoy this special feed drop of our Patreon-exclusive side series, Party of One (Plus One), focused on sequel episodes, returning guests, and deeper dives into the games we feature on the show.
Devin is the designer of Pale Dot, a collaborative storytelling game for 2-5 players about a crew of non-human cosmonauts leaving their planet to explore a strange solar system, finding threads to unravel the unknown along the way. He takes us through a session of the game, and we get real weird real quick.

HOME is a mapmaking RPG of Kaiju vs. Mecha, in which pilots step into the shoes of colossal war machines to do battle with invading monsters. Can they survive the battle, or will the Kaiju tear their home to pieces?
I sit down with the game’s creator Nick Gralewicz to find out.
Demonic Deals is a two-player TTRPG about a summoner, a demon, and a contract. You want something. The demon wants your soul.
I sat down with the game’s designer, Morgan Eilish, to get a taste of the game in action.
J is one of the Dungeon Masters for Planet Arcana, and the co-designer of A Fool’s Errand, a tarot-fueled science fantasy game set in a vibrant post-calamity world of Androids, Humans, and those in between. We sit down to build out characters and explore the world of the game, discovering a calamitous, world-shaking Big Oops along the way–and asking the question “what is life like for the people alive in its wake?”
AJ is an Actual Play performer, video editor, cosplayer, and (like me) a wearer of many hats; you can most recently hear them on the latest arc of One Shot, playing Machine Impossible, and as a player on The Lurking Legends (a rotating GM, One Piece-inspired Actual Play series). We sat down for a game of Friendly Neighborhood Superhero, a game about superheroic action and protecting your community. We geek out SO MUCH about superheroes, y’all. It’s great.
Chris is a voice actor, actual play producer, and founder of Taíno Tales, an award-nominated, queer latine-led TTRPG actual play channel. We sit down to play Ironsworn Starforged, and encounter a horrifying discovery and a dangerous showdown on a snow-blighted wasteland planet!
