The official Quinns Quest podcast (where we play notorious old TTRPGs from history) has never been so relevant. Before Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire, before the action figures, almost before the cartoon, did you know 1986 saw the release of an official Ghostbusters roleplaying game? And did you know it's actually good??Recorded live over two days at the UK Games Expo in 2025, this season of PTFO offers an alternate universe in which beloved test subjects Emily Johnson and Rob Morgan step into the roles of... Emily Johnson and Rob Morgan, in an alternate universe where Rob becomes a Ghostbusters franchisee.

PTFO returns with Nobilis! Folks said this TTRPG of warring gods was both amazing and unplayable. We had to find out if they were right.Join the Quinns Quest Patreon to hear the rest of this season and for so much more!Credits:Performed by Quinns, Emily Johnson and Rob Morgan.Editing and design by Brian Flaherty of Many Sided Media.Music and SFX courtesy of artlist.io

In this season of Play to Find Out, Quinns and the gang are wiping the dust from the 40 year old game Toon.Toon is an RPG where you play cartoon characters. It was made by storied designers Greg Costikyan and Warren Spector early in their careers because of a discussion they were part of where some folks agreed that an RPG about cartoons couldn’t be made. And maybe they were right?It's a Player vs. Player RPG where the golden rule is act before you think.Note: This will be a shorter season than Jorune (2 Acts + 1 Talkback)Join the Quinns Quest Patreon to hear the rest of this season and for so much more!Credits:Performed by Quinns, Emily Johnson and Rob Morgan.Editing and design by Brian Flaherty of Many Sided Media.Music and SFX courtesy of artlist.io
