what is...

bored ghost?

bored ghost is a storytelling audio series that uses games to drive the stories. We play a variety of games, from independently published collaborative storytelling games to traditional roleplaying games, all towards one goal: telling stories.

We love stories and we love games.  On bored ghost we play games that let us tell stories. The world of roleplaying games has broadened and a number of new games are being designed to help foster the story in the game.  Our goal is to put character and story first, so you don’t need to know how a game works to enjoy the tales that are spun from it.
