It is expected that the villains in The Name of the Doctor, the season finale, are a group known as the Whisperman (or perhaps Whisper Men, I’ve seen it written both ways). They have a distinct look and feel quite Steven Moffat in style. My first thought was that they reminded me of the Gentlemen […]
Iron Man 3 review
There are a few surprises in Iron Man 3. There is always a risk with messing with expectations when it comes to comic book movies but Shane Black and the writing team make it work. I enjoyed Iron Man 3. It’s easily the strongest of the Iron Man sequels. The original retains the title of […]
T-Shirt: Someone Ate All My Cultists
Noticed this t-shirt by Strange Land tees on Etsy and thought to myself there are only two people who could ever say; “Someone Ate All My Cultists”. The first is Cthulhu himself, the silly begger. No wonder he has the sads. The other? Your evil GM, of course. GMs get to mourn the loss of […]
The sound of Oblivion
I don’t think there are any real spoilers here – but if you’re super cautious, avoid until you’ve seen the film Oblivion. If you’ve seen the film Oblivion then this feature will make. How do you soundscape a world after a nuclear war? This video touches on the sound those pesky drones made, through to […]

This survival horror title takes place between the Resident Evil 4 and Resident Evil 5 timelines and stars both Jill Valentine and Chris Redfield. As […]
Turns out a can of worms isn’t so bad after all
This surprisingly cute can of worms was designed by Andrew Bell. The worms have articulated heads and tails. The can is optional. The figures are about 8.5″ x 6″ x 4.5″. I feel this is something every games designer needs on their desk. This is a reminder that opening a can of worms isn’t always […]
Short film: C
C is a brave short sci-fi film. This is the story of Lieutenant Commander Malleck and her mutiny during an interplanetary cold war. The film is impressive enough, having funded via Kickstarter nut it’s worth noting that neither CGI nor greenscreens were used in it. All the effects you see are props and filmed “in-camera”. […]
First Squad review
First Squad is an anime set on the Eastern Front as Russia fought the Nazis. We watched it with English sub-titles and most of the dialogue was in Russian. The plot is straight forward with the twist at the start rather than the end. We follow a young woman, with a red blindfold and a […]
Dungeon dice
Need a dungeon in a hurry? These dice, sold by Think Geek, come in backs of five and will help. They’re designed to that the passageways always line up. The result is you can throw a handful of dice, scoot them together in whatever haphazard pattern you want, and you’ll have a dungeon. There’s even […]
