  • Episode 335: Think on your Feet XLVIII
    Jan 2 2025

    Tune in for Think on your Feet XLVII, in which the play through of The Innsmouth Conspiracy, featuring Subject 5U-21, concludes.

    In Think on your Feet episodes, a live play series, I endeavour not to edit much at all. Sometimes I cut some shuffling sounds or abbreviate some of my longer pauses (a chap's got to think!), but otherwise, it's uncut, unaltered and meant to feel like you're with me at the table. There may be mistakes and misplays, but hopefully some successes too.

  • Episode 334: Nyarlathotep's Grand Feast
    Dec 12 2024

    Join Frank and Peter for the third and final part of an extended interview with Azathoth's replacement Nyarlathotep, aka Duke Harrist, the lead designer of Arkham Horror LCG. In this episode, we talk to Duke about The Feast of Hemlock Vale campaign. We work our way through every scenario in the campaign, as well as its influences, the tone he wanted to set, his thoughts on difficulty, solo play and balance and the personal elements of his own life that went into the creation of the campaign. If that's not enough, we round the whole thing out with a bit of chat about The Drowned City, too!
