Recently, our games have been played on two different YouTube channels.

The folks at The Battlehammer played a refresher game of Urban Manhunt, using iconic hunters. Armed with firsthand experience with the game, they published another video in which they create their own hunters. Those two hunters will be featured in yet another video soon.
Meanwhile over on the Babies with Knives YouTube channel, our own Norbert Franz teaches the hosts about character creation in Capes, Cowls & Villains Foul. This is followed up by a video in which CC&VF author, Barak Blackburn, runs the first installment of a CC&VF game for them. ​

Biff! Bam! Kapow!

BIFF! BAM! KAPOW! Is the campy 1960s superhero television show RPG… and it’s coming soon from Spectrum Games. 

Get ready to enter a world in which the heroes hit so hard, sound effect words suddenly appear in the air... a world in which your heroes will fight their way through the henchmen of zany, over-the-top theme villains and eventually find themselves caught in elaborate death traps while the narrator ponders their fate! 

Every aspect of the genre will be faithfully emulated in BIFF! BAM! KAPOW!, from rewarding heroes for finding preposterous solutions to problems to having a limited budget to work with when crafting each episode’s story. No stone has been left unturned.

The game emphasizes minimal prep time and fast-playing mechanics that allow you to wrap up fight scenes is mere minutes. Heroes and villains can be created quickly, despite having unlimited options at your disposal. 

You’ll find yourself immersed in “The Hoot Owl”, the TV-series-that-never-was, complete with a backstory, episode details, and a collection of heroes, allies and foes. It offers you and your group an easy way to jump right into the Dutch angled action! And if you would rather go the DIY route, there’s plenty of support for creating your own series!

BIFF! BAM! KAPOW! Will be available as a PDF and as a physical digest-sized book. The release date is TBD.
