Step into the shadows of the unknown with us as we unearth the fascinating history behind the Call of Cthulhu RPG, a game that turned tabletop horror on its head.  We'll trail the game's evolution, from Sandy Peterson's early work to the atmospheric depths of the 1920s setting, and delve into the ingenious Sanity Score.  Prepare to celebrate the game's unique approach to horror as we guide you through its legacy, a journey not just for seasoned investigators but for anyone drawn to the call of the cosmic unknown.

Our exploration doesn't stop at the game's inception; rather, it expands into the realms of Call of Cthulhu's thrilling expansions and the 7th edition's Kickstarter odyssey. Discover how this RPG has transcended time with globe-trotting campaigns like "Horror on the Orient Express," and how it has traversed different eras through supplements like "Cthulhu by Gaslight." We'll dig into the logistical labyrinth the creators navigated, revealing how a simple miscalculation in shipping costs almost sunk the company, and how the original masterminds saved the day. Embrace the refined mechanics of the 7th edition, and get a glimpse of the extensive catalogue of supplements that continue to bolster the mystique of Call of Cthulhu, ensuring its place at the pinnacle of horror role-playing games. Join us for an episode dealing with the birth and growth of a game that has captured the imaginations of players for decades.

I've heard from some listeners who apparently like to listen to the whole series in one go so, this monster episode is for you folks - all five episodes of ToOHLFYD in one package.

Enjoy.

This episode sees the team enter silo RYI as they attempt to complete their mission (whatever that might be).

Naturally, it's a fiasco.

Oh, and there's singing...again...

This episode sees the team dealing with the consequences of messing around in a power plant, as well some very lively demonstrations of just how well protected a Comp Node actually is.  They also *gasp* try and attempt to accomplish their mission objectives.

Naturally, it's a fiasco.

With a certain Baldur's Gate 3 taking the world by storm, we decided to do an episode on computer RPGs - all those digital versions of our favourite games that we've lost hours to. 

Join us as we talk about games from the past that we loved (and loathed) and marvel at just how much time Steve has lost to Baldur's Gate 3...

This episode sees our team explore RYI sector where they begin to suspect that Friend Computer isn't as...well..."stable" is a stretch, but isn't as "predictable" as usual.  They also explore a cubicle farm and a nuclear reactor, because we all know letting troubleshooters near a nuclear reactor is a BRILLIANT idea.
