Tales from the Orc Den

This month's game from a hat takes us on the wild journey to the center of the Earth where the kaiju reside. Your task is to make them feel better. Maybe they have a sour tummy, or a hurt tail, or more likely a giant parasite for you to fight!

Alright, we admit that this one was a little tough to put together. I mean, one of the topics was circus, so you know it's gonna be a clown show. All that aside, we made a pretty rad game about an evil clown turning the world into living evil creatures. And as a player, it will be your job to stop it!

You'll be tasked with all manner of deeds, and will have to do them without asking questions or speaking to anybo...

So you take mars (of course the game takes place in space somehow) and you hollow it out. The richest of the rich live in the inner sanctorum but you, you live on the surface collecting scrap and magic ingredients. Are you a mage, or a cyber punk? Are you some hybrid of both? You certainly aren't a big wig or you wouldn't be a surface dweller, so pick up your gear and hop in the buggy, we gotta ma...
