Fantastic live play Cthulhu!

Amazing cast of characters with a great keeper at the helm! The player chemistry is good and so well played out, it's a gem to listen to. the keepers pacing is great and keeps the story moving without feeling flat. The campaign was one I was really excited to see a group playing, and as a keeper that owns and has read 'The Children of Fear', they are doing this story justice so far! I highly recommend this for one of your weekly rotation live plays!

Came for the Cthulu, stayed for the Ct-humour

I really like this podcast, the chemistry between the players and Keeper is great and to be honest once you've got that down everything else comes naturally. Strong storytelling too from a Keeper who isn't obsessed with killing everyone just for the sake of it, which is nice. Highlight sp far: Sofian's obsession with sock climbing

Don’t miss this!

https://www.starsareright.com has great characters, stories, and—not to be underestimated—production values. Lots of podcasts and videos might be fine games, but actually being able to hear what’s happening and differentiate the voices is super helpful. It listens more like a professionally produced audio drama than an AP, with just enough mechanics to give visibility into the game.

Honest Review

I wasn't expecting much after a bad podcast play through that I listened to. I wanted to try going into this podcast with an open mind but not have high expectations. Now I feel guilty about starting off without them! The group was entertaining! The story was easy to follow, the explanations and descriptions and sounds were so immersive, and I loved that the group maintained a sense of humor. I especially loved the DM who monitored the world without controlling the characters and allowing the players to make silly choices they would late regret! I'll be sure to recommend this to my friends as I jump right into the next episode. Very pleased!!
