One of the pleasures I have as an ‘archivist’ of some pretty cool – albeit it out-of-print – roleplaying games (such as www.stormbringerrpg.com & www.darkconspiracytherpg.info) is the opportunity to interview the creative forces behind the products that now lie on my (overburdened) shelves. In this role I’ve interviewed dozens of creatives, all of whom have graciously given their time to chat with me about the history of various games and roleplaying products, however, few has given me as much pleasure as this interview with Alex Jurkat – one of Eden’s Studio’s founding editors.
So, read on to hear about how Eden rose rose to become one of the leading lights of tabletop gaming industry in the late 90s and how they went from saving Conspiracy X from a false start, through to the arrival of the Unisystem mechanics and the publication of the Buffy the Vampire Slayer RPG….
