RPG Reanimators

Episode Notes In this episode, we discuss our thoughts and experiences with designing and running Green Boxes in the Delta Green TTRPG. We discuss the core elements of what we believe constitute a Green Box, ideas to shake things up beyond the typical storage container, thoughts on ways to make them feel more alive and engaging, and share some of our favorite (and least favorite) items to include for our players!

Episode Notes This week, half of the Reanimators stitch our brains together to cover chases in tabletop RPGs! We compare rulesets from a variety of TTRPG systems, discuss what elements of chases we want to emphasize for players, along with some issues we've had in the past, and give our unsolicited advice for GMs who are looking for ways to make their group's next chase thrilling and tense™. Links: Here is the Seth Skorkowsky CoC Chase rules video we reference: https://youtu.be/jy1LL05E5gI?si=DjlUv56Nb_df0sVh As well as the very serious Heavy Rain failed chase video: https://youtu.be/Yy44s_de15Y?si=bTJhAYtRA0qFQkca Chat more with us on our Discord server: https://discord.gg/R8Q6aeyVk8 If this episode was helpful to you, and you'd like to support us and get early access to episodes and other content, consider following or subscribing to us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/RPGReanimators Consultations are free-form topic discussions based on our own GM experiences, preferences, and gaming philosophies. We hope some of this gibbering madness can be helpful to other GMs dealing with, or considering using, these issues at their table (or at least add new and exciting chattering voices inside listener's heads).

Episode Notes In this episode, we dissect and reanimate the Call of Cthulhu scenario Deliver Us from Evil written by Keeper Doc and Alex Guillotte. We've had the pleasure of playing and running in multiple versions of this scenario (soon to be published as APs on our YouTube channel) and work with KeeperDoc to give a variety of insights for great moments to highlight, as well as some potentially choppy waters for GMs to be aware of before running it.

Episode Notes In this episode, we study an aberration that is half roleplaying game, half card game, half improv routine, and half love letter to the late David Lynch (that math checks out according to our non-Euclidean algebra). Something is Wrong Here by Kira Magrann is an extremely interesting and unique system that we haven't seen anything like before or since. We discuss some of our experiences with the system and provide some ideas and suggestions to help future Facilitators make their own Lynchian waking nightmares.
