But when you get amateur civilians imbued with demonic superpowers, each egged on by literal inner demons, the situation becomes slightly more...chaotic than planned. Find out how badly their first major act of villainy fares in this must-listen episode!

Call of Catthulhu: Night of the LOLcats
20/01/2014 Duración: 02h18minSo this is a game that exists. That I bought at Gencon last year. And decided to run. And the other players agreed to play. This is now a thing. They play cats, who fight the Cthulhu mythos, because reasons. So I chose the scenario seed that involved LOLcat memes because I am a horrible monster. Anyway, enjoy an indie RPG about feline comedy/horror investigation!
