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?
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…

Find out as the Cannibal Halflings find one another in the Fields of the Lost in the conclusion to our actual play trilogy of Now Playing: DIE the RPG!

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.
