Today The Lost Bay Podcast’s guest is Adam STATION.Adam is best known for designing modern horror RPGs, with a surreal twist. Their games and modules have two unique features. First they are heavily procedural, based mostly on tables and nested tables. Second they are inspired by modern and contemporary music, to the point some of them are actually partially sampled from song lyrics and titles.Today we’ll be talking about “I dont belong here”, a modern horror module for Liminal Horror, inspired by Radiohead music and that is crowdfunding on Backerkit right now.We’ll also do something a bit different, we’ll roll on some of Adam’s wild tables!While you listen to the episode take a moment to check the backerkit page https://www.backerkit.com/c/projects/stations/i-don-t-belong-here-modern-horror-inspired-by-radioheadStorewww.thelostbaystudio.comNewsletterwww..thelostbaystudio.substack.com/subscribe?Follow the The Lost Bay Podcastwww.bsky.app/profile/thelostbaystudio.comwww.instagram.com/thelostbaystudio/Produced by IkoEditing Laura ElleMusic Avery Isles

This episode's guest is Jesse Ross, designer of Trophy Dark. Trophy Dark is a narrative game about doomed treasure hunters venturing into a forest that doesn't want them there.I'm a late discoverer of Trophy Dark; I read it just a few months ago, and it radically changed the way I see and play RPGs. The book delivers such a strong and consistent gameplay experience with a very simple mechanical architecture. You know I like horror RPGs, and Trophy Dark, in a way, is a medieval fantasy forest horror game. It's unique and beautifully designed, with a mesmerizing quality and a set of mechanics that allow for amazing gameplay to emerge.In this episode, we'll talk about a dragonfly invasion, things Jesse sees in the dark, coping with hubris, and how to build a truly meaningful collaborative gameplay experience.Jesse's websitewww.jesseross.comTrophy Darkwww.trophyrpg.comRooted in crisis website and Kickstarter pagewww.rootedincrisis.comwww.kickstarter.com/projects/jesseross/rooted-in-crisisStorewww.thelostbaystudio.comNewsletterwww..thelostbaystudio.substack.com/subscribe?Follow the The Lost Bay Podcastwww.bsky.app/profile/thelostbaystudio.comwww.instagram.com/thelostbaystudio/Produced by IkoEditing Laura ElleMusic Avery Isles
