Mike Sullivan’s Magipunk concept is deeply cool and I want to play in it. GMs, take note.

The Palm Beach Story, 1942 - ★★★★

You just keep moving at whatever insane pace is necessary in the moment, and if that requires a precious five minutes spent on a gun club rampaging through a train, I’m all for it. The women are determined and full of whim, and the men are perfect straight men. The ending? Everything else has bowed […]

And although the deserted streets full of modern architecture don't quite convey the near future Argento was aiming for, they're still striking.I think […]
