46. Escape from Dinosaur Island - Pt 1

Flashing Badger Podcast

Escape from Dinosaur Island is a cinematic tabletop RPG adventure where everything goes wrong immediately.

Hosted by Gordon, this story follows a rag-tag crew who covertly land on a classified island crawling with dinosaurs, the result of an obscure government research program that was never meant to be discovered. This isn’t an amusement park gone wrong. There are no safety rails, no tour guides, and absolutely no plan once the dinosaurs notice them.

Mike plays Wyatt Bower, a self-described “Collector” who acquires valuable items and re-homes them… which is to say, he is definitely a thief. Dressed head-to-toe in ivory and clearly hiding an agenda, Wyatt is on the island for something very specific.

Wegs plays Professor Timothy “Bristles” Bristlington, a distinguished palaeontologist. Refined, upper-class, and deeply passionate about ancient life, Bristles may finally be standing on the greatest discovery of his career… assuming he survives long enough to study it.

Fitz plays Gryll Bearless, a survivalist and well-known TV personality who has come to Dinosaur Island in search of adventure, fame, and footage. Cameras rolling, instincts sharp, Gryll is ready for whatever the island throws at him. Unfortunately, the island throws dinosaurs.

After landing by helicopter near the docks, the crew begin their exploration… and immediately encounter the terrifying truth of where they’ve landed. With hidden agendas, clashing personalities, and prehistoric beasts hunting them, the question becomes clear:

Will they achieve what they came for? Or will Dinosaur Island claim them like everyone else?

If you enjoy cinematic tabletop RPGs, Jurassic-style chaos, survival horror, and characters who absolutely should not be trusted, you’re in the right place.
