Jason is the designer of Desperation: The Isabel, a haunting historical horror game of a doomed cod-fishing vessel on the Gulf of Alaska in 1888 (as well as Fiasco, Grey Ranks, and a tremendous number of other hugely influential games). We set sail on the Gulf to explore what happens to this doomed crew as a storm overwhelms them... and then Hell comes with it.DESPERATION: https://bullypulpitgames.com/products/desperationBLACK LIVES MATTER: https://blacklivesmatters.carrd.co/#ALL MY FANTASY CHILDREN: http://www.allmyfantasychildren.com/YAZEBA'S BED & BREAKFAST: https://redcircle.com/shows/yazebas-bed-and-breakfastPARTY OF ONE DISCORD: https://discordapp.com/invite/SxpQKmKSUPPORT JEFF ON PATREON: www.patreon.com/jeffstormerTHEME SONG: Mega Ran feat.

Transcript It's the crossover event of the season! This week I'm joined by Jeff Stormer of the Party of One podcast to talk about the core mechanic of Desperation by Jason Morningstar. In this game full of dread about a small Kansas town struggling through a never-ending winter, instead of deciding what happens, each turn you draw a card and decide who the thing on the card happens to. It's a super slick mechanic. Meanwhile over on Party of One, you can listen to Jeff and I actually play the game.

Transcript It is still designer commentary season on Dice Exploder, and today I'm talking with Jason Morningstar (Fiasco, Night Witches, a million other games) about Northfield: a game we co-designed about when Jesse James tried to rob the bank in my home town, we shot the hell out of him and his gang, and then we started an annual small town fair to celebrate our victory. You play as both a member of the James-Younger gang and as a person in the present day portraying your gang member in a reenactment. It's a weird little game, much like its subject matter, and surprisingly personal to me (Jason was not surprised). On this episode, we break down the process of our collaboration and how we feel about the results (very positively). More than any other designer commentary I've done, I hope you check out this game. I'm really proud of it. You can get it on the Bully Pulpit Patreon now for $5. Further Reading Northfield, the game, on the Bully Pulpit Patreon Video of the Defeat of Jesse James Days reenactment Official Defeat of Jesse James Days website Photo of (allegedly) Charlie Pitts' ear Wikipedia articles on Northfield and the James-Younger gang Socials Sam on Bluesky and itch.

Jason Morningstar is perhaps the iconic Indie RPG Game Designer in my mind. He is the legendary creator of Fiasco, one of my favorite games of all time, which continues to inspire me to this very day. He also created many other masterpieces like Night Witches, Durance, Skeletons and many others. He is also an educator, and, more importantly, he is generous, kind, and supportive with other in our community. This chat was only supposed to last for 1 hour but we managed to stretch it to a little over 1 hours and a half and I with we could have gone for another 2 hours, but I had to go. Good news is Jason enjoyed the chat and is willing to come back! We talked about process, art, creativity, curiosity, the constant impulse to find novelty, the search of the weirdness in the mundane. We talked about other games, creators, and art that inspires us. Jason also shared lots of stories and pieces of wisdom we can all learn from, which I am always seeking. This is one of my favorite episodes. I am a big fan of Jason's work. It was an honor to talk to him about it. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did so... Let's get weird with Jason Morningstar!

Plain text transcripts are available at diceexploder.substack.comThis week Sam is joined by Jason Morningstar of Bully Pulpit Games, known for Fiasco, Night Witches, and many other excellent games.Jason brought on transparency, a concept originating in the Nordic larp community, which describes the separation of player knowledge from character knowledge (similar to dramatic irony. We go through a whole library of example games in this one as we talk through genre, safety tools, playing to lose, and the deployment of secrets. Jason's enthusiasm for this topic is infectious - there's so much to think about here! If you're listening and a designer, I'm pumped to hear what shenanigans you find to get up to with transparency in your own games.Further reading:The Mixing Desk of LARPThe Golden Cobra Challenge, live now!The Fool's JourneyFiasco second editionWelcome GuestsParanoiaBluebeard's BrideMontsegur 1244Star CrossedSocials:Jason on Bluesky and dice.camp.Bully Pulpit Games and their Patreon.Sam on Bluesky, Twitter, dice.camp, and itch.Our logo was designed by sporgory, and our theme song is Sunset Bridge by Purely Grey.Join the Dice Exploder Discord to talk about the show!

Recorded at Metatopia Online 2021 Presented by Jason Morningstar, Tim Hutchings, Jeeyon Shim. Join us for a rollicking discussion of our worst habits and how being lazy, careless and hard-headed is often the best possible approach to game design. Do you design in layout? Is your playtest process a little shambolic? Do you cut corners and assume the math will all work out? If not, come and be outraged as we take a somewhat jaded approach to conventional wisdom you've heard a thousand times.

Recorded at Metatopia Online 2021 Presented by Anne Ratchat, Jason Morningstar, and regrets from James Mendez Hodes.  When writing games, a lot of topics are taboo simply because as a community, we are worried how people might take the intentionality of the design to the worst possible places. The issue created by not writing these games, we erase the experience of so many creatives and players who also deserve to have their voices heard. We will be discussing the thought process of how to tackle these controversial topics so that games can be a place for all experiences.

Dans ce PBTA (Powered By The Apocalypse, c'est-à-dire un jeu qui s'inspire ouvertement des mécaniques du jeu de rôle Apocalypse World de Vincent Baker), les joueurs et les joueuses incarnent des night witches, des femmes, des pilotes de l'URSS envoyées combattre les nazis sur les fronts de la Seconde Guerre Mondiale, avec pour seules armes de vieux coucous déglingués...   Photographie prise par Nikolai IgnatievPour le premier podcast de notre quatorzième saison, avec Yann K, Jérôme S, Antoine M, Tommy et Yoann, nous jouons à Night Witches pour vous. Comment se déroule une partie de Night Witches. Quels sujets le jeu permet-il d'aborder ? Quelles sont les mécaniques propres à Apocalypse World et quelles sont les mécaniques propres à Night Witches. Comment le jeu parvient-il à nous plonger à coup sûr dans l'ambiance de ces théâtres de guerre. Alors oui, Night Witches est une machine, mais une machine de guerre, une machine à broyer des personnages historiques... Ces femmes font aujourd'hui encore l'objet de la propagande Russe ! Grâce au jeu de rôle de Jason Morningstar, cette semaine, nous découvrons ensemble le quotidien et le destin de ces femmes qui chaque soir s'envolaient vers la mort...  Bonne rentrée à tous et à toutes. Portez-vous bien et surtout jouez bien !

Max Lander and Aaron King dig through RPGs of yore to bring you valuable nuggets of mechanics, lore, and strangeness. They read the fucking manual so that you don't have to. This episode, we're joined by Essay Mnktl, audio engineer and player on the Three of Hearts podcast. We talk about the first edition of Fiasco by Jason Morningstar. What's up with these "story games"? How can a designer set tone and expectations for potentially problematic material? And who wins the first out-and-out argument between Max and Aaron?

Paul & Dan chat with Jason Morningstar, creator of Fiasco, Desperation, and other great RPGs. Jason Morningstar is an American indie role-playing game designer, publishing mostly through Bully Pulpit Games. Morningstar's games often lack a Game Master and are often set in situations that quickly go unfortunately for the player characters. Grey Ranks (2007), for example, is about doomed child soldiers in the 1944 Warsaw Uprising, and Fiasco (2009) is about impulsive crooks pulling heists that are sure to go terribly wrong. With these two games, Morningstar became the only named person to have won the Diana Jones award twice as of 2013. Morningstar also works with academia and industry, consulting on using games for teaching and learning in education, with a focus on health sciences. Now, Jason's newest production provides "games of survival horror, often without the survival". Desperation is the engine that powers two unique and chilling experiences, built on the same dark tone and mechanics, that are truly pick-up-and-play experiences for you and your friends. The Desperation Engine is different because you don't decide what is said—you decide who says it. And in a small community, who says “I burned a house down with the family trapped inside” makes all the difference in the world. The cards for each game include an entire claustrophobic world of characters that form a web of relationships you will then apply agonizing pressure to and, in most cases, destroy. Find out more about Jason Morningstar's Desperation game here Wandering DMs Paul Siegel and Dan “Delta” Collins host thoughtful discussions on D&D and other TTRPGs every week. Comparing the pros and cons of every edition from the 1974 Original D&D little brown books to cutting-edge releases for 5E D&D today, we broadcast live on YouTube and Twitch so we can take viewer questions and comments on the topic of the day. Live every Sunday at 1 PM Eastern time.

Dan & Paul discuss the newest, diceless edition of the Fiasco RPG. Fiasco is a role-playing game by Jason Morningstar, independently published by Bully Pulpit Games. It is marketed as a "GM-less game for 3–5 players, designed to be played in a few hours with six-sided dice and no preparation". It is billed as "A game of powerful ambition and poor impulse control" and "inspired by cinematic tales of small time capers gone disastrously wrong—films like Blood Simple, Fargo, The Way of the Gun, Burn After Reading, and A Simple Plan." Fiasco was the winner of the eleventh Diana Jones Award and has been one of the featured games on Tabletop. In August 2019, Bully Pulpit Games introduced a card-based version of the game, which they launched on Kickstarter. Instead of dice and index cards, the boxed version uses decks of playing cards for playsets and an engine deck.

Part 2 of our two-shot run of Jason Morningstar's "The Black Drop." The investigators' expedition to the Kerguelen Islands has gone horribly wrong. Having barely survived their first night on the main island, critical decisions must be made around who to trust and where to travel as time races toward the inevitable transit of Venus. Will the God of the Black Stone be banished for another thirty years, or will they finally rise and end civilization as we know it? The Black Drop is a Trail of Cthulhu scenario written by Jason Morningstar, adapted in this play-through for Graham Walmsley's rules-light iteration of Lovecraftian horror roleplaying, Cthulhu Dark. This session is part of Gauntlet Calendar. To find out more about the Gauntlet roleplaying game community, check out gauntlet-rpg.com

In the year 1937, a small team of investigators makes a final voyage to the Kerguelen Islands in the South Indian Ocean. Their goals are simple enough: Spend two weeks helping a few families pack up the colony and prepare to depopulate the island. However, something slowly gathers strength beneath the frozen basalt of the remote Kerguelen archipelago - a monstrous thing once worshiped and then betrayed, a terrible god from the antediluvian past. Its time has come again, and mysterious forces gather. Will they usher in its rebirth - or put an end to it forever?

Helpful Goat plays an experimental 1-shot RPG (and improvised sequel!) inspired by the 1989 Tom Hanks and Carrie Fisher movie, The 'Burbs! Designed and GMed by Adam (Burbage Kemp in The Fates of Ryn, Silvyr Norran in Waterdeep: Dragon Heist, GM of Big Gay Orcs) and streamed on Twitch on Thursday, October 24, 2019 as part of our Special Spooktober Stream Series! Warning: There's some potentially offensive/triggering content in this episode, including violent imagery, darkly comedic references to 9/11 and drug abuse, and jokes about Canada that only came about because one of the players rolled for their motivation to be "To get even with the dirty immigrants." Speaking of which, thank you to Jason Morningstar for the list of needs/motivations that we used (from the "Tales From Suburbia" Fiasco playset)! The premise: Mayfield Place. A cul-de-sac located in Hinkley Hills, a neighborhood of Des Moines, Iowa. 30 years ago, on this very street, Tom Hanks began suspecting that his new next-door neighbors were killers. While investigating with his man-child friends, he inadvertently blew up his neighbors’ house—and went down in history in the process. Now, 30 years later, the events of 1989 are the stuff of local myth and legend—and firmly set in the past.
