Gaming Perspectives with Saul and Jolene Episode 58: Gamma World

Gaming Perspectives with Saul and Jolene Episode 58: Gamma World

In this episode Saul and Jolene talk an old rpg Gamma World by TSR. It was the first RPG owned by Saul and it was Jolene's first RPG game she played way back in the early 80's. Saul and Jolene discuss all the iterations Gamma World that were published. From the first edition published in 1978 to 8th edition published in 2010. Saul has copies of 4 different editions. Saul and Jolene talk about why they liked the game. Saul discusses running the latest edition at local con in kids and teen rooms.

Thanks to all that listen to our podcast and all we ask is that you share our podcast with family and friends.

We have to confess an error we refer to the bipedal mutated rabbits as Hoppers but they were actually called Hoops. Hoppers were the large horse sized mutated rabbits that some used as mounts. Hoops were smart and Hoppers were considered dumb by Hoops in the game. Sorry for confusing the two mutated rabbits.

The Day After aired on November 20th 1983. Interestingly enough the NATO ran a command post exercise called Able Archer, later records reveal that this was the closest the world was to nuclear world war since the Cuban Missile Crisis. Check it out, pretty scary stuff.

Music by Blue Ducks, song Floss Suffers from Gamma Radiation off the album Six
