“I just discovered this wonderful podcast and am now fiendishly making my way through its back catalog. I stumbled across it looking for actual-plays of David Larkins' amazing Call of Cthulhu sourcebook, Berlin: the Wicked City, and was instantly hooked. The GM and players are engaging, intelligent, and funny, and all do a great job breathing life into well-thought-out, intriguing characters (and NPCs). I admire the self-possessed, unhurried GM'ing style here, reacting well in the moment, improv-style, to the PCs' repartee and creative shenanigans. I entirely disagree with the reviewer here criticizing an alleged excess of humor and "lack of tension." The GM and players here are clearly having a great time, but nothing in any way detracts from the excitement and tension of the adventures themselves. On the contrary, the post-production sound effects and music, together with great GM'ing make every episode a great combination of excitement, horror thrill, and humor. Half the fun of Call of Cthulhu is watching characters go mad in the face of grizzly (no pun intended) horrors, and that is accordingly one of the draws of an actual-play CoC podcast like this. These episodes are completely absorbing and highly entertaining. They've transformed my commuting and cardio from drudgery to joy. Check 'em out.”Read full review »

“I was not aware of expedition to the grizzly peaks before finding this offshoot highlighting campaigns they've run. These are all great scenarios with some of the best podcast hosts guesting as p.c's. If you are a fan of the genre you will enjoy this podcast!”Read full review »
