Season 1, Ep 1: Kentucky Fried Western [~1865 CE]
PastMaster is the time-travel role-playing adventure show where Ryan, Keon and Tan explore a different era of history each episode with the help of our AI GameMaster.
In this episode, meeting up to play PastMaster together for the first time, Ryan, Keon and Tan discuss whether AI is ‘good or bad’, where PastMaster sits among the pantheon of roleplaying games (RPGs) and how the idea for this game sprang out of a pub chat.
Professing to know ‘nothing’ about either history or RPGs, the group’s AI-sceptic Keon dives into the adventure, heading straight for the nearest saloon (typical).
Teaming up with a mysterious criminal known as Jesse Blackridge, Keon sets his sights on creating the world’s first fast food chicken franchise. Will he succeed or shoot himself in the foot?
As a bonus we also get to hear Keon’s speculative AI venture: a hook in the style of Drake.
