Deep within the Vermissian Network, the failed supernatural subway that sprawls throughout the Spire, lies the Last Train - the only locomotive capable of traversing its nonsensical tunnels. The Ministry of Our Hidden Mistress has sent forth a cell comprising of a rabble-rousing pamphleteer, a cigarette-toting bound warrior and a confident Vermissian Sage to acquire the Last Train for its purposes.

Emma and Gil welcome Banana Chan: game writer, larp/RPG designer, board game publisher, horror movie buff, and pop-up museum aficionado. We talk about writing for all kinds of games, how game mechanisms support intense experiences in larp and RPG, the effects of emancipatory bleed, and the effect of moving roleplay online. Content warning: we discuss games with intense themes, like human sacrifice. 4m29s: The Spire RPG 5m59s: The Circle is a reality show in which contestants are isolated in their homes and can only communicate with others via a text-based app. They're free to adopt any persona they wish. You can watch the first episode of the American reboot here. 6m27s: Pork roll vs. Taylor ham (two names for the same kind of processed meat) is a long-running debate in the Garden State. 7m01s: Jean-Paul Sartre's No Exit, a legendary play with a classic twist. 9m03s: The RPGs This Discord Has Ghosts In It and Long Time Listener, Last Time Caller 10m06s: For those of you just joining Ludology, welcome, and we just covered safety tools in Ludology 227 - Respect the X. 11m27s: To make it clear, bleed is a general term to describe a phenomenon (occurring mainly in larp) where a character's emotions and identity start mixing into a player's emotions and identity, and vice versa. It can be extremely intense, and larps usually feature necessary wrap-up sessions where players can talk out feelings that the game brought up. Here is an article with a couple of excellent examples of bleed. Jonaya Kemper, who Banana mentions, has written about emancipatory bleed here. Read more about Kemper and her work here. 11m59s: Here's Albert Kong's tweet about emancipatory bleed. 12m21s: More info about the Baphomet larp. 17m29s: Diplomacy is a game that's long-established for challenging friendships. 18m41s: Banana's new RPG, Jiangshi: Blood in the Banquet Hall, co-designed with Sen-Foong Lim 22m44s: Warp's Edge 24m51s: Angelus Morningstar has a good write-up on cultural appropriation in board games here. (Also, when Gil says "I wish this is something more board games would do," he means "hire cultural sensitivity readers.") 29m07s: They're Onto Me. The Golden Cobra Challenge is a contest for freeform larp. 31m06s: Dads on Mowers, a module for the RPG Kids on Bikes. 31m57s: Cobwebs RPG. 32m19s: Alice is Missing RPG. 32m37s: Banana is talking about an episode of the TV series Masters of Horror. This particular episode (which Gil and Emma will never watch) is called "John Carpenter's Cigarette Burns." 33m53s: Betrayal at Mystery Mansion is a re-implementation of Betrayal at House on the Hill, but with a Scooby-Doo theme. 35m58s: As We Know It. 37m32s: Roll20 is a website that facilitates online RPG play. Discord is an online text/voice chat program for gamers. 38m48s: By "corpse," Gil is referring to the surrealist writing exercise Exquisite Corpse. 41m39s: Banana's dinner party films: The Invitation, Get Out, Coherence. She also mentions Midsommar. 42m28s: Here's the article Gil mentions that describes the benefits of experiencing a horror movie entirely from its Wikipedia page. 43m02s: Here's Avery Alder's body horror RPG, Abnormal. 44m08s: The Park Avenue Armory, one of Gil's favorite places in NYC. Banana discusses The Funhouse in Toronto, which is now closed. 46m05s: The mangaka Junji Ito. 46m58s: Battle of the Boy Bands, a game by Clio Yun-su Davis and Vicci Ho that Banana published under the Game and a Curry label. Enjoy some music from Stray Kids and BTS. 50m05s: Night Witches, by Jason Morningstar. We had Jason on in Ludology 161 What's the Story, Morning Glory? Banana also mentions his game Juggernaut. 50m52s: Avery Alder's Monsterhearts. 51m25s: Here's the moment in the video Gil was mentioning.

Ironshrike seethes. Somewhere in its knotted web of relationships, from desperate drug peddlers to venal gun-running arsonists, religious matriarchs and would-be righteous squires, somewhere in the sea of desperation, is the key to killing a market. Varda seeks to prioritize looking after the weak and dispossessed, Nirvic orchestrates a masterful strike to precipitate social change and Joz carefully demonstrates the principle of, "Punch first, never apologize ever."
