Grumpy RPG Reviews: World War Z

Episode 58: World War Z

• A video review of the novel "World War Z" by Max Brooks,
• Soylet Green! Now Greenier!
• Brooks, son of Mel Brooks, wrote a zombie doomsday book,
• It is one of the best horror novel written,
• Brooks took inspiration for the tone and structure of World War Z from Stud's Turkel's "The Good War,"
• World War Z has survivors of the war telling their stories,
• Unfortunately, the narrators sound somewhat flat owing to similar grammar and reading grade level, even between very different characters,
• It is also an oddly optimistic book for a zombie horror novel,
• Still, it is a great read and highly recommended for anyone interested in a zombie story,
• Soylet Green, a Fullbodied Snack!

Life

Starting this week I am going to an alternating schedule, one week on and one week off. This is this the silent week. Next week will be a noisy week.

Game Content: The Birthday Shoggoth

This has nothing to do with today being my 139th birthday...

A nightmarish thing of unimaginable imagination dwelling in horror for a scintillion of years shuffles from bottomless murk… and it is wearing a cheap business suit and gesturing towards you with a clipboard.

Grumpy RPG Reviews: Plan 9 from Outer Space

Episode 57: Plan 9 from Outer Space

• Grumpy Predicts!
• Plan 9 is not the worst movie ever.
• Grumpy provides a brief discussion of the film
• Acererak talks about gaydar.
• Grumpy proposes deliberately recreating something like “Plan 9” in a game, for laughs.
• Alternatly, the PCs see all these flaws in the world around them and the NPCs don’t know what the hell they are talking about.
• Plan 9 gets a “the dice don’t work that way” -20 on a d20 roll; so bad it is good.
• Acererak says something disturbing about the film.
• Future games will affect you… in the future!
