Clint was able to convince 3 other human beings to play Goblin Quest the RPG with him. That’s right! This episode is an actual play of Goblin Quest the RPG with 4 players, lots of goblins, and a whole lot of laughs.

*A special thanks to our players Ryan, Robert, and Jonathan. May the ears of your goblins never need to be plucked off for luck!
