The first episode of the new podcast Rainy Day Adventure Club is here! You can listen to it below.
Although it might be better just to download the mp3 and stick it wherever you want to stick it!
Rainy Day Adventure Club is a strange beast, and rather hard to describe. In each episode, host Alex gathers a bunch of his friends together in a room and makes them solve puzzles, talk to eccentric characters and generally not act their age. It is a little like a Dungeons and Dragons game, but with less complicated mechanics and more talking squirrels. Or a Choose Your Own Adventure book with more freedom for the players. Or the classic children’s game show Knightmare, without the helmet and with about the same number of silly voices.
But the best way to understand it is to listen to the first episode! Go on, I’ll give you the link again.
This episode features my good friends Heather, James and Stuart. Episode notes, including a text version of one of the puzzles, and references for all the music and sound effects used, can be found over here.
There are two more episodes in this adventure, which will be released on the 6th and the 13th of October. After that, there will be a short break before further adventures are had.
