"Mercenary Guards wanted for security at Lord Chadsworth Farquat's 18th Birthday Event! Candidates should make themselves available to the Guard house at Farquat manor at the first bell on the 13th of Jules. 10gp per guard for the day's work."

Lord Farquat is the heir apparent to the Farquat's, an ancient founding house of the sprawling metropolis of Eisenberg. His estate is on the Noble's promenade, close to the Sanguine Gates that lead to the lower city. It will be a dull day standing security for a bunch of snooty privileged young nobles, but hey 10gp each will keep you in ale for a few weeks yet! You all head to bed early, to the distant sounds of the beating drums from the latest protest down in the slums, a regular occurrence these days...

Greetings troubleshooters. Welcome! You slimy, newly synthesized clones, to Alpha Complex!

Your best friend and benefactor is the omnipotent, omniscient omnivore AI - Friend Computer. As a hyperintelligent AI, naturally he has better things to do than to solve the issues plaguing you troublesome remnants of humanity, so...

That’s where you come in, troubleshooter! You have been stuck with the important job of bringing a Hallowed Programmer to fix an issue with Friend Computer’s master terminal. Where is this located? Well that’s classified, above your clearance level. And what are you so interested for? Next you’ll want to know how to get there, and who you’ll be going with. Why do you want to know so much information? Sounds like something a communist spy would do! Know your clearance. Anything above your clearance is none of your concern. Anything below? Well that’s up to you to decide.

Paranoia is a classic RPG from 1984. A relic from a world still recovering from the red scare and the cold war. Filthy traitorous communists are your enemy. Treachery is all around. It’s as much a game of you versus the environment as you versus the other players. After all, how would it look to Friend Computer if you let them steal all the glory?

No prior game knowledge is required, but useful (And also illegal, how did you get a copy of that knowledge? That’s beyond your clearance!) ‘Tis a silly game. Prior roleplaying experience preferred, though a willingness to betray each other and argue profusely will do.

Ever wanted to set up your own Ghostbusters (TM) franchise in Wellington? Your opportunity is here!

You will have to fill in the required paperwork, disclaimers and liability charges, of course, and be ready and willing to fight all sorts of paranormal infestations and occurrences as required. Interested enquiries (both employment and otherwise) can be made to our offices, currently located above the Ho Chi Ming takeaway and laundry services. Please ignore the smell.

Basically, if you want to try out an award-winning, blast from the past, comedy RPG experience from the original and influential 1980s WEG Ghostbusters game, then please sign up.

In the seventies, monsters and demons ruled supreme - killing and haunting and wrecking all sorts of schlocky horror. But that was ages ago, that was your parent's time. Sure, your mom may have been recruited as an incubator for a Satanic cult, or your Dad might've been the best exorcist known to humanity. Maybe you inherited some kind of power your mom used at a prom one time or a list of people who still Need to Pay from your dad... but it's time to make your own way in the world, isn't it?

A group of Gen X, Xennial and Millenial monster hunters with something to prove, a legacy to embrace or outrun, or possibly someone to avenge. When they rock into town to solve the latest mystery it's either to set things right or make a bigger mess.

Who will survive and what will be left of them?

Imagine Disney's Descendents but the parents were all the leads in Seventies horror movies. Time to get into the Mystery Machine and see what you can make of yourself.

Pre-made characters, knowledge of Big Name 70s horror movies recommended
e.g Rosemary's Baby
The Omen
Carrie
The Wicker Man
The Exorcist

You are attending a mid-winter Christmas party with your in-laws. It’s August, you’re wearing a snowman jersey and you couldn’t work out if you were supposed to bring a present. How did they find crackers at this time of year? Did they steal the tree from someone’s back yard? Did … Did they record last years Christmas TV to play endlessly in the background? Time for a nice ten minute stint in the bathroom… Oh. Someone else had the same idea. Well then.

You know that TV show with the vampire, the werewolf and the ghost all flatting together? It's pretty funny, until it gets really dark and sad...

well this game is the game of that idea. You're all not quite human and you're all flatting together. Sure it's cute that the zombie is making friends with the kid next door but is it really safe for him to be babysitting them? Who's turn is it to do the dishes anyway? And why does the new flatmate keep drowning people?

Blood and Water is a shared narrative game, character and player driven. Expect black comedy and emotional connections.

Something is wrong in hell. There is a distinct lack of new souls arriving and the big boss is not happy. You and a random band of other devils are send to earth to investigate and reinstate the flow of souls.

The system is based on a house ruled version of In Nomine developed by someone called Björn. The rules are simple and aimed at allowing feats and stunts worthy of the masters of hell while providing for surprises and creating an utter mess.
