I love how completely insane every aspect of The Clay That Woke: an RPG about Minotaurs is. The video on Kickstarter is 9 minutes of the game designer Paul Czege looking into the camera and speaking hoarsely about the incredibly deep world of minotaurs he’s dreamt up. The scenario for his tabletop game involves an alternate reality where minotaurs exist and have vowed to serve humans by doing menial and dangerous work, and most importantly, always keeping their mouths shut. When they can no longer hold their tongue, they retreat to the wilderness where they have surreal minotaur adventures that earn them more silence tokens. No shit. You can’t make this stuff up… unless you’re Paul Czege, apparently.
