Content Warning - Extreme injuries and death. Mourning. Injuries and/or death of non-pet animals. Side Character Quest is teaming up with Parable Games (makers of the horror tabletop roleplaying game Shiver) to demo their new entry into the horror genre: Don’t Play This Game. DPTG is a unique legacy solo horror experience that has players live out their own found footage horror movie. Although this is a solo game, players are invited to pass the record they create while playing to a new victim, who then has to pick up the curse where the first player left off. Listeners are encouraged to continue the legacy of this playthrough, continuing the story in their own game. Click here for resources. (If you do play, make sure to tell us how it goes!) Don’t Play This Game is already fully funded on Kickstarter, but you can still back the game until November 2nd 2023. Thanks to Sam P. for voicing Professor Conte. Thanks to Jordan Reed of Spooky Spouses and PodCube for voicing the answering machine. Have questions for us, or just want to say hi?
