April 16, 2013

MORE DANGEROUS THAN DYNAMITE :OAfter saving the world from an evil cult during a summer road trip, a group of friends and their monster pals find themselves trapped in a strange world, where an omniscient narrator distantly rumbles life lessons about crossing the street and not washing clothes with gasoline, and that’s not even mentioning the flying monkey. Can they figure out what’s going and who’s behind it? Will the subcommittee reconvene before Mr. Speaker suspends the parliamentary session? Find out in this special one shot of Monsters and Other Childish Things!

MAOCT: Sucrose Park at Fear the Con 2011

March 29, 2011

WE CAN'T STOP HERE - THIS IS ROBOT COUNTRY I ran one of my favorite chapters from Road Trip at Fear the Con 4 with special player Chad Wattler from Fear the Boot. As before, the intrepid kids and their monster pals are investigating a strange theme park in Las Vegas called Sucrose Park. Kids enter but they never leave. At the center of the mystery is a giant brain and the bizarre mascot, Cool Rat. Enjoy! (Sorry about the noise levels but it’s unavoidable during con games).

Special thanks to Violet Kirk for the art!

Monsters and Other Childish Things: Sucrose Park Gaiden

December 1, 2010

CONTRIBUTE  TO THE RUINS OF LEMURIA KICKSTARTER TO GET 10 PREVIEW AP EPISODES!

What happens after the heroes pass through Sucrose Park and defeat Cool Rat? A group of kids finds out that robots with true AI,  self-replicating technology and errant programming shouldn’t be left unmonitored. Kids have been kidnapped from tourist traps from around the country and forced to join strange factions in a weird underground facility. The robots have something planned but it’s hard to tell what.  This game is based on material from the campaign Road Trip published by Arc Dream.

Monsters and Other Childish Things: Sucrose Park

June 17, 2010

Designed as the ultimate daycare center, Las Vegas’ Sucrose Park looks after thousands of kids while their parents gamble away their college tuition in nearby casinos. A corporate wonderland of rides, ball pits, arcades and the mascot CoolRat await. Too bad the owner of the park never wants anyone to leave. Ever. Instead, when the parents come to pick up their kids, a robot duplicate is given to them and few parents notice the difference. After all, they’re too concerned with how much money they just lost. The players discover that the owner is a monster who decided that it couldn’t be friends with just one kid, it had to be friends with all children. All the neon lights and laser tag arenas can’t hide the fact that Sucrose Park is a prison. It’s time to break out.

MAOCT: Are you there Witch? It’s me, a Monster at Dragon 09

March 10, 2010

The Kingdom of Oz is in peril! The Wizard and Dorothy have long since abandoned it and a new ruler is needed before it falls apart. But there’s only one person capable of uniting the kingdom…the Wicked Witch of the West. The players must brew her back to life with a magic ritual and figure out how to change her so she’s a bit more suitable as a ruler. In order to do this, the players must go on a quest and figure out what makes a worthy ruler. Find out what they wind up doing in this one shot I ran at Dragoncon 2009.
