Added 2022-03-14 16:00:09 +0000 UTCHi folks,
Wishing you the very best for the coming week from all of us at Rusty Towers.
This week, we start with another visit to Stellar Firma Inc’s compulsory citizen employee enrichment scheme. This time, Hartro is voluntarily appreciating the movie Footloose. Can she and IMOGEN find it in themselves to rebel against the Board in the form of dance and rock music? Find out at 5pm GMT today.
Meanwhile on Enthusigasm, to echo a regular sentiment of Helen’s, is one of my favourite episodes. This week, they’re talking about style and personal aesthetic with Annie Fitch, an editor at Rusty Quill, Marisa Ewing, also an editor at Rusty Quill, Nathan Blades, a streamer and Sasha Sienna, game designer and voice of Georgie in The Magnus Archives. Their chat goes far beyond a simple exploration of fashion or trends and instead they dive into what style means to them and how it allows them to express themselves.
On NPC, Mike and Rhys are starting a whole new competition for a whole new reward: a day in arcadia. Not sure what that means? Check out the episode on Patreon this Wednesday to find out. In the next four episodes, Mike and Rhys are playing Escape Simulator. Last time, we asked the question: what if Rusty Quill had a farm? This time, we’re asking: What if Rusty Quill did an escape room? Will Mike and Rhys successfully team up to make their escape? Or will they get distracted and cause complete chaos instead? Find out on Wednesday!
On RQG this week it’s the final part of the game of Scene Thieves with Ben, Helen, Lowri and Lydia. The play is going down a storm, and the heist is in progress – can they finish both successfully and make Sasha proud?
Finally, some news from some of our RQ Network shows! We’re delighted that Old Gods of Appalachia season 3 is coming on the 17th March. If you haven’t yet had a chance to watch their video trailer, check it out on the Old Gods of Appalachia YouTube channel. As above, so below…
The Silt Verses season 2 is also on the horizon, launching on 21st March. Listen to their teaser trailer over on The Silt Verses twitter account. Keep a watchful eye on the rising waters.
We were also delighted to announce We’re Alive: Descendants – a sequel to zombie horror, We’re Alive. Descendants launches on 5th April – so you’ve still got a little time to catch up with the original series! The first look teaser can be found on the We’re Alive YouTube channel.

Having recently listened to the majority of campaign Skyjacks I’m super pumped for this Enthusigasm & I’m definitely gonna have to listen. Nathan is awesome.
