Having successfully pulled off their first job, the newest crew in Duskvol is going for a second job. 

Dusk’s Quartet follows a tip from a friend. Someone robbed a casino and made off with the night’s take, and now they’re hiding out until they can get out of town. But Dusk’s Quartet wants to get to them first and get the loot. And, since they’re assassins, probably kill them, too.

Will they be able to track down their prey? And will they be able to make a clean getaway? Listen to find out!

The crew has set out from Wohlsen’s Folly to an unnamed moon. Their mission is to extract the data about an experimental terraforming device, for which they will be paid with contacts with the higher-ups of the Wohlsen’s Folly colony.

But this alien planet is not as deserted as it looks. And what lies in wait for the crew may just make them question everything they thought was true. Or maybe not.

This week, the fairy circus lands at the Nearly Yearly Festival in the court of the Goblin King! Unfortunately for all in attendance, the king neglected to invite Hilda, a living storm, and she has decided to crash the event. Mired in mud, beset by rain, the performers and fairgoers alike must, by decree of the Goblin King himself, swallow their complaints and pretend to enjoy themselves. On top of all that, someone in the circus has a very personal, and very unfortunate, connection to Hilda, one that just might provoke the thunderous wrath of the living storm. Can Uncle Jerzbleen and Co. pull off another successful performance, despite the nasty weather? Listen to find out!

Editor’s Note: This game was also plagued by some technical difficulties. We apologize for the error. We have decided to stop using gremlins to record our games, since they’re mischievous and apparently like to delete files.

Having escaped from The Deep, the divers have made their way to the backwater world of Wohlsen’s Folly. It’s a terrible place, but it’s off the beaten path. 

But if they want to have any hope of surviving, they’re going to need cash. And on a planet like this, that means taking a shady job from an even shadier person.
