Hello All,
On 23 October 1926, 6 party guests were invited to the home of Harrison
L’Godt, a reclusive eccentric on the outskirts of town.

Jason Spears spotted one of the BrickShelf galleries last week and posted to
MichLUG--as a huge fan of Lovecraft, of gaming, and of Lego, I love the idea
and the number of details you were able to pack into the house is just
amazing!! Great work!

Thanks! We were working on the entire project for a long time. Not all of the
ideas and details are completely original (refer to the in-progress credits
file), but I hope to post further information about some of the elements I’m
most proud of: the hutch in the laboratory, the SNOT corner-fireplace
construction, the beds, the steer skull, and a small pile of other period
details.
As I was fond of telling everyone to whom I revealed the project before we
actually played - this experience was tremendously fun and fulfilling even
without taking the actual gameplay into account. Between building, storyline
and background development, prop-making, and brainstorming, this was a lot of
fun.

I grabbed four of the pictures last week and made a new background for my
desktop. I especially love the skeletal dragon!
|
Technically, it’s a skeletal balrog ;) Unfortunately, by the time the players
arrived in its vicinity they were already hurting, and some of them were
beginning to suffer from multiple insanities that were making them a bit
dysfunctional. Out of the kindness of my heart the skeletal balrog was never
reanimated. That’s one of the MOCs I’ll be photographing extensively and
posting about in the near future.
Thanks again for the comments! Believe it or not there’s a whole boatload of
additional information coming down the pipe. The first writeup of the gameplay
is completed, and in the next few days we’ll be posting that along with many of
the files that were developed for the game.
