Birthday games. Several of our recent articles and episodes

discuss our passion for running birthday games for our game group, whether it

be D&D, the OSR, Avatar Legends, or the classic Marvel Super Heroes system;

it’s become our thing.

In this episode, Tony, Chris, and Dave discuss the recent Birthday

Game they ran where The Doctor teamed up with the Sensational She-Hulk and

members of the Avengers and the Fantastic Four to stop the impending Cyberman

invasion orchestrated by the wielder of the Cosmic Control Rod, Annihilus, and

do battle against the Brood in a giant Space Whale (believe us…. It made way

more sense at the table!)

We then discuss our 7 best tips to help you build your own

Very Special One-Shot for Birthdays or any other day!

2:20 Finding the right type of setting and property to

showcase the gift of the Birthday Game. DM Tony revisits his love of the

classic AD&D adventure, Castle Greyhawk.

4:30 Tip #1: Have a Solid Theme.

5:30 DM Dave gives a brief overview of the impetus for the “Lost

Episode of Doctor Who” that birthed this episode.

8:25 Tip #2: Use Existing Properties: How we’ve built

existing properties like Masters of the Universe into existing games, like our Curse

of Strahd campaign. Shout-out to the team over at Nerdarchy!

16:20 Tip #3: Choose the Best System for the Setting AND the

Players.

18:00 Tip #4: Go All Out. Terrain, minis, costumes… really

stretch your limits.

19:00 We revisit DM Tony’s Murder Mystery One-Shot that he

based off Clue.

20:19 Tip #5: Use the Players Favorite Character/Campaign as

the Focus.

22:28 Tip #6: Tie It into Your Existing Campaigns… and our overarching

Multiverse.

24:50 Tip #7: The most obvious… Focus on the Special Player.

30:45 DM Chris brainstorms planning a Birthday One-Shot in

real time.
