  • Old Game Still Played – RPGaDay 2023

    Old Game Still Played – RPGaDay 2023

    Today’s question is: Old Game You Still Play I bet a lot of people have referenced the publication date over the edition. I mean, I know there aren’t rules to RPGaDAY – it’s for fun, right (right?!) – but most folk who say D&D won’t be playing out of the white books from the 70s.…

  • Weirdest Game Played – RPGaDay 2023

    Weirdest Game Played – RPGaDay 2023

    Today’s question is: Weirdest Game You’ve Played I genuinely don’t remember the mission. I know I GM’d the session, so I’m responsible for the situation as it unfolded. PARANOIA. I definitely chose to ramp up the slapstick mode in this mission, and that seems the sole focus of my memory. It would have been 1991…

  • Favourite Tie-In Fiction – RPGaDay 2023

    Favourite Tie-In Fiction – RPGaDay 2023

    The RPGaDay question for today is: Favourite tie-in fiction First of all, I pondered how much fiction there is out there that springs forth from a game system or setting. And there’s quite a lot, I guess. D&D aside, there is fiction from PARANOIA, Delta Green, Dragon Age and others on my shelf. All good…

  • Favourite Dice – RPGaDay 2023

    Favourite Dice – RPGaDay 2023

    The question is: Favourite Dice The only special dice I possess that might warrant the term favourite are my Dragon Age dice. These are not Dragon Age dice. These are the dice that I play with when I run Dragon Age. As part of Green Ronin’s AGE system, Dragon Age has stunts, and these depend…

  • Favourite Character – RPGaDay 2023

    Favourite Character – RPGaDay 2023

    The original question was: Favourite Character And I’m going to bastardise this one slightly by referencing more than one character and none of them are mine. So… Favourite Character(s) Ayrton Fellowes, Dane Crowther, Ethan Burroughs, and Graham Giuradanda made up the team sent to Manhattan to investigate a missing woman and the astounding nightmare in…

  • Smartest RPG Played – RPGaDay 2023

    Smartest RPG Played – RPGaDay 2023

    The original question was: Smartest RPG You’ve Played I would say, in general, it has been the game and adventures played with my local gaming group. As a band of people with busy lives and hectic schedules, the Stockport Unorganised Role Players provided a great opportunity to play a lot of different games all the…

  • Favourite Never-Get-To-Play RPG – RPGaDay 2023

    Favourite Never-Get-To-Play RPG – RPGaDay 2023

    The original question was: Favourite game you NEVER get to play I think Star Trek, probably. FASA Star Trek. That said, I did manage to get a game in at a Sheffield convention — North Star —  in the middle of last year. The FASA games were a part of my first journeys into roleplaying, and…

  • Oldest Game Played – RPGaDay 2023

    Oldest Game Played – RPGaDay 2023

    The original question was: Oldest Game You’ve Played That was an interesting bit of research to undertake, and I didn’t expect the outcome to fall as it did. I started my life in role-playing around 1984. We played a bunch of games released around that time, so I suspected that therein would lie the answer.…

  • Most Recent Game Bought – RPGaDay 2023

    Most Recent Game Bought – RPGaDay 2023

    The original question was: Most Recent Game Bought I quite like the cut of the last question, First RPG Bought (this year), so I’ll stick with the ternary approach. The three answers are: In summary, I have a chunk of reading ahead of me! Robert J. Schwalb yanked my attention in the direction of the…
