ENnie-Nominated Cannibal Halfling Gaming invades the airwaves to talk about tabletop roleplaying games!
3, 2, 1…
Forte, Ichigo, and Matias have collected some winnings at the House of Dice casino, but someone is tipping the scales – and it’s not in favor of the bounty hunters’ employer. As the chips and whiskey fly, cybernetic eyeballs are put through their paces, and oddly similar figures move through the crowd, will the crew of the Progressive figure out who’s rigging the game?

You’re Gonna Carry That Weight…
I think it’s time we blow this scene. Get everybody and the stuff together… On a ship named Progressive, three bounty hunters down on their luck jump at the chance to score big at the House of Dice casino, in orbit over the Jovian moon Europa. Rather than rolling the dice at the tables, though, they’ll be gambling on whether or not they can track down a culprit who is already in the system…

Jay, Fitz, Max, and Evelyn gather together for their high school reunion, and to revisit the tabletop roleplaying game that they played together so many years ago. There’s going to be quite a bit more emotional bleed than they expected… but first, who are they? What are their discarded dreams and deep-seated problems? Why should they have never come back together… and why do they absolutely have to? Find out as the Cannibal Halflings don their Personas in Now Playing: DIE the RPG Part 1.
