Will leads the Dads in a good old fashioned dungeon crawling RPG. There's an ooze-worshiping cult, unending darkness, and a gelatinous cube. What's not to love?

Let us know what you think of the map visuals and if you want more one shots like this - we're experimenting!

Solaire

yess i love the visuals

Ryan

Oh my God, finally, some creator put something out since Christmas! It has been a vapid wasteland of auditory, rot…

Baijo

The visuals are so neat this is so cool

Carlina Howell

I want to give you guys feedback but yall are so genuinely funny together thay there is literally nothing you guys could make that I wouldn't be entertained by 🫶

Kyle Dawson

Visuals are great, however an audio only version so I don’t have to download a video to listen offline would be appreciated as well

Louis Frohock

You know. I liked this. I’d try it.

Emily L

I am here for Anthony's psuedo scam likely voice 😂

Emily L

Ok I'm also here for Freddie's young and dumb voice 😂

yeswecanada

Shouts outs Electric Bastionland. Beth's character in that was dynamite

Cain Morgan

You can tell when Matt isn’t in the game it just gets horny and unproductive

Danny

Can we pitch in to get Freddy voice acting lessons, but get him a coach that will specifically get rid of his uwu voice?

Borscht Bill

The dangers of getting debilitatingly high before a record

Sean

Love this!

Alex Monson

What interactive mapping tool is this?

DubiousDank

More videos plz love this

Danny

But yes please keep going until they get through it

IamSparloo

In a way isn’t the slime also an influencer and they just have more followers than Beth ?

LilacIris

This was great! Also I would love to see y'all do "goblin quest" at some point 😁

AaronDarkblade

Going into the pool of bones and leaving the torch bearer behind is the craziest move 😂 Horror movie protagonists.

Jam Jamothy

i appreciated the map, and i hope yall do some more of these it was quite fun

D20to1

17 minutes in and I finally say "Where the fuck is Matt?"

Nude Tayne

This is like if the movie Friday took a dark turn but everyone was too high to notice.

Aaron W

Oh frickin frac yes, Shadowdark - I can't wait to hear this one. I've run Trial of the Slime Lord a couple times and even made & ran a sequel for my home game. I can't wait to witness the Dads' spin on this. Aaaaah!

Nathaniel Gibson

20 seconds in and Will’s already being interrupted, this is the banter I’ve missed! 🙏

O. A. Wilde

The April 2020 MBIC was Goblin Quest :)

LilacIris

On damn buried in the backlog, thanks 😁

Country Mac

Yessss! I'm so excited!!

Gmork

Not sure if I want more one shots "like this" specifically, but definitely keep experimenting w one shots of all kinds of different games. Criminal Mines and We're Doomed and Pokémon Go to the Polls were great 😀

Michael Miller

Virtual Tabletops are always a nice addition.

Drednot

At first I felt bad for Matt being left out. Now I'm jealous

Waywardscientist

Thank you role play perverts, thank you 🙏 five+ dollars well spent

SoZettaSlow

It looks like roll20 but I'm not sure

Dustin Raymond

MATT.... wh..where is Matt???? 20 dollars well spent but still...I feel like im not getting 100%...besides as the funniest guy on the podcast lol

Ace Hutson

Damn, matt was prettu quiet this episode

PuppyCrusher

I like this a lot. Was cool to be seeing the table with y’all.

Aaron Sawatzky

Love Shadow dark! Definitely would love more OSR style games. I think lethal systems/games suit you guys so well, just look at kingdom dad monster. Also the visual component was very fun where you can mostly listen but occasionally glance at the map to clarify when necessary.

Eric Willey

As an "Eric" I appreciate the representation.

ZebrAlpha

Freddy - I loved the it's just a door when he called it a jar. Nobody noticed and that's a crime.

Benjamin P Parson Gomberg

Love Will trying to be inclusive with referencing Gygax’s “guys gals and nonbinary pals”, but Anthony was right. Gygax shouldn’t be included there, he was a huge misogynist POS who directly wrote sexism into his games and would have thrown a tantrum at having women at the table. Much of what people enjoy about DnD didn’t even come from him; he was an enormously adversarial DM whose main focus was war game style dungeon crawling and who scoffed at the concept of role playing. Not saying we should write him out of the history of the game since he did play a huge role in its formation, but we don’t need to try and make him some progressive even for his time. Like you wouldn’t talk about Lovecraft being at the forefront of race relations. We don’t need to try and smooth out the flaws of these people. The diversity and inclusiveness in DnD is directly against what someone like Gygax wanted. The fact that it has become associated with those values is progress that the people in the hobby have worked hard to improve and shouldn’t be credited at all to someone like Gary Gygax.

Jenna

this was so fun!!!

Flufflecat

Had a dream that anthony died and they announced it on the patreon, by saying that he outgrew his tank and died because he didn't have enough room to swim around anymore. Pretty sure I was actually dreaming about someone's pet arowana but I'm glad that my dream was wrong either way

SonOfABoofo

Have they played Heroquest? Because if they haven’t, they should play Heroquest

Raiguire

YES ive been wanting some sort of visual game board content. So happy rn

Zephyr Atkins-Mitra

love this!! please do more! hope they survive longer next time!

Lukeoftheirish

Will we ever get a Monster of the week mini series, I think the rules and Beth’s love of Buffy would work well with how you people play

JD

This is absolutely incredible

Hampus Siöland

Yeah, we definitely want more of this. Here's hoping that Mat can help them along a bit! Also agree with the person in the comments saying that this needs an audio only version as well. Map's great, though.

The Void

I really enjoyed this as an interlude. It was fun to hear you guys just goof around a bit after the very high stakes gameplay of the season 3 finale. I could definitely listen to a few more episodes of this :D

Marissa Y.

I would pay more for Patreon if this were an option 😂

Noelle Bartley

I assumed the door was “ajar” lol

drmimms

I laughed so hard -- loving everyone's character (and narrator) voice choices, and the ending was inevitable and hilarious.

Blupengu

Would definitely love to see more of this! At least the level 0 map 😂

Órla

This makes up for how much I miss KDM

HogeyBear

I always love seeing the length of these and summarizing them as "They went through 3 rooms, started erp'ing, and each dived into a jello cube and died."

Alb the Builder

Holy shit “reading the plaque on the plinth” to the rhythm of “look at the flick of the wrist” wtfffff that’s an all timer hahaha

lizardqueen6969

"so no matt?" *jumps on skateboard and breaks it in half*

Nolan

Freddie I love you

FreakyBeeky

9 out of 10, FAR too many uses of the word "grope"

Lula Hiigel

This is why you don’t toke and dungeon crawl, kids! Fantastic 😂

Damana

THE FLOAM JUMPSCARE (yes pls more virtual tabletop!)

Narrativerrection

Please more OSR delving. So much dungeon left to have sex in!

MoonkFeesh

Ignore my comment please everyone, i swear this isn't spam lol, i just need to get this from my work computer to my phone real quick Deijon, Mystical attuned, brawler/lightfighter, Rage build Active Skills:, Dispelling Strike, Tempo Strike,Shortcut, Blink Strike, Side Swipe Intrinsics: Brawling(Creation delve intrinsic), Unarmed, Light armour, Tailoring, Dimensional magic Passives: Barbarian(in place of a star sign), Furious Blows(creation delve)

Luiska

This was so fucking fun haha. Can't wait for more! The map visuals were also really great. I put on the oneshot to have something play in the background and kept turning back to the video to see where on the map everyone was.

Corey Evans

Can’t wait for more of these!! Surprising how riveting it is - love the video work!

Carey Evans

I had to do a triple take when I saw your name

Corey Evans

I think we need to be NPCs in a season... DADDIES!! Make Carey and Corey Evans NPCS PLEEEEASE!!

Shaun_qb

This hit that Kingdom Dad Monster itch. I can't wait for the next one

corundum liqueur

The video map is a great touch! Thanks! But I like that your descriptions are still primarily in the audio. I can check the map but I’m not reliant on the map for understanding storyline.

Grace Hansen

Love the one-shots! It’s missing that extra Matt flavor though 😭the Beth/Matt Combo is comedic gold.

Damana

I totally agree with this!

Zachary

Love this! OSr can be so fun!! More!!!

RuthlessRa

I am a fan of the map! Very nice! Always excited for a random one shot

banana Peel

Taylor is a national treasure, Im truly sorry you were ever fooled into thinking otherwise

Nolan

No more OSr, esp without full cast. That being said, I will listen to anything you put out and your my fave crew ever

Nolan

Agree. Freddie Wong can do no wrong

PuppyCrusher

It killed me when Freddie was trying to run down the hall to see it for his next character and Will just giggling: “you can’t see, dude!” This would be awesome for an ongoing series like kingdom dad monster. Let us get some Will DMing, and it can just be a as needed when y’all need to shore up some content. Fun story: on roll20, there was an option for dynamic lighting so you can set the light sources and their range to show players how much they can see and where. I used it like ten years ago for an online game with some IRL friends. And it blew my mind how much less aggressive they explored when they could only see how far their characters see. The toons with our special racial vision were super timid. The one person with a torch went around a corner and left everyone else in near total darkness. They all kept together real close after that. It was beautiful.

btheist

matt was really quiet this episode

Big Ballz McGee 9001

It's so quiet without Matt! Great record, I gotta try this game!

Grant Irey

love the map visuals!!!

Alvin Bo Balvin

So fun! Can't wait for Erik and his pals!

Zon

I really like the map elements. Could anyone tell what map maker program Will is using here?

Horsebone

Can't wait to meet Erik

Patrick Morris

How often does beth play some sort of influencer character in these bonus games. I just listened to them play honey heist and I'm starting to notice a motif

Gizmotep

So glad to hear there's more at the end and its not a one shot!

James Eames

Ooh that's what that was!

Marissa Y.

(Spoilers) Freddie, who has had 3 characters die across 3 seasons: I'm always interested in disposable characters

Marissa Y.

Also I'm sorrry "click clack" is SO GOOD for an alternative to Tiktok. I had to pause to get over how good that is.

Bearonavirus

Rimar flirting with Aesee who sounds like a child is almost problematic to me

Irvin13

who’s dick do i have to suck to get more KDM expisodes

Pickle Pee

This episode encouraged me to buy the game, and play it myself, so thanks! Also, I'm hoping for more episodes of this. We need Matt Arnold in the game too, since he's the best at digging into mechanics.

SenorBumFace

I listened to specifically this part so many times.

Emma C

"So somebody peeing?" I love you Beth

ADoubleEgg

Leigh

This was great. I listened to it on my podcast app but I came here to check the visuals. If you do another I'd watch it instead of listen. Great idea and a fun episode! However, I was a little unsure if this was a video or not (because I just listen to every episode automatically in my podcast player) so it would be nice if the post was labelled [BONUS VID] or something like that. Not important, just would be nice.

ScoopyOopyPoopy

So fun. I'd love to see you guys play around with Wanderhome - it's a beautiful cute game where you just straight up imagine the whole thing and do random stuff as cute animal characters. I know you'd all absolutely pollute the game but it'd be hilarious

Alexander Thorin

I love this. But the sound goes from L to R randomly. Abit annoying When you got headphones on

Alexander Thorin

Nevermind. My headphones do this When I turn around for some reason

Edoda

This is a ton of fun to listen too!

Hannah!

I love this janky little video its so charming and that nickelodeon floam was so silly

Hannah!

id' love more oneshots like this btw! so crunchy and silly and love the energy

ShannyKrik

Can we pleeeeease play shadowdark again

Zilla

i am so excited for the next episode!!

Creekie05

I kinda wanna hear you guys go through tombs of horror.

Kona Goodhart

Is this supposed to show up in the podcast feed? It's not showing up for me, so I only knew to look on Patreon because it was mentioned in the credits

Michael Micek

Same for me. I was looking for the second episode, but can’t find it.

Dungeons and Daddies

Episode 2 just went live in the last 20 minutes! Shadowdark now has its own collection here on Patreon, so you can find it there.

Joey

Map visuals are very fun! I appreciate them. Can't believe the Puddin' shout out, I miss them every day

Benjamin P Parson Gomberg

I’ve got a job, thanks! Seems like you need to get a healthy outlet for your impotent frustration and confusion at a world that has passed you by

Jalen Humphreys

At the time of listening to this there is an apology I want to hear Freddy voice, lol

Georgia Steadman

i cannot handle will telling freddie he has to keep his voice and then instantly saying oh my god freddie when he does the voice

Noah Banes

I think it’s great that we can see the combat this time around! I’d love to see it in more of your content🙏

MooRoo25

The shadowdark episodes both play fine on Spotify but on here they both just stop working. This one at 5 seconds and the other st 1 minute 21.

Drake Nuzzo

That's just on your end, bud

Taco Dragons

Is it just me or is this not loading for anyone else? Second is but this one won't play.

Michael Purscell

Why? I’ll remove my comment but why the fuck tell people to harass me

Quinn

Is the video not working for anyone else?

james L

i be youd throw a fit girl played in your campaign too i just get that vibe, actually scratch that a woman wouldnt get within 100ft of you so ur all good 👍

CompletelyCleverName

this reminds me a lot of darkest dungeon i wouldn't be surprised if red hook was inspired by it lol

Curbature

I don’t know whose dick you sucked, but thank you for your service

Ana Bishop

The map makes it feel like a video game and now I understand the appeal of dungeon crawlers

atakji

i love the visuals! and the game is so chaotic, its awesome!
