Alien RPG - L'interview

May 2022, I had the fanstastic opportunity to invite Dave Semark and Matthew Tyler-Jones Dave on the youtube channel of the JDOM (Les Jeudis d'Outre-Manche) to discuss the creative process behind Alien - The Roleplaying Game (Free League).

During this one hour conversation, I have asked Dave and Matthew to share about their journey in the industry, how their friendship and collaboration have evolved over the years, how Free League stepped into their lives, and what was the process behind the creation of Alien RPG (2020 Gold ENnie Award for Best Game). I like to think this interview stands as a testament to their friendship, inspiration, and creativity as some of the most inspiring TTRPG authors / designers in the UK.

Note: The opening is in french, but the conversation was performed in english.
