Escape from Dino Island #1

[@samtung]

Oh wow, I co-wrote and illustrated this game! This is delightful. Thank you for sharing our game!

[@liamhall1744]

Did you ever imagine that there’d be a character created that did insane human/animal/dinosaur experiments?

[@VanBourner]

@@liamhall1744 and as the members learned - first thing the character thought when seeing a dinosaur was "look at the tits on that one!"

[@samtung]

@@liamhall1744 Genuinely of the best parts about putting the game out into the world is seeing people do stuff with it I would never have come up with.

[@morganbanks9812]

That is so cool man! I'm loving it and can't wait to see what happens next 🎉😎

[@VanBourner]

@@samtung so... You did not expect big-titted dinosaurs? (In the character creation vid that is the first thought of Lydia when she saw a dino for the first time)

[@UnderwurldChris]

Lydia's 'cat man / dinosaur man' monologue is just perfect!

[@123ricardo210]

Watching that in a full train while eating was a mistake.

[@HelenaOfDetroit]

I appreciate the hard work that must've gone into making Lydia's audio usable. Idk what went wrong exactly, but I'm glad they fixed it as best they could because it's at least good enough to understand Lydia. So, thank you for the hard work and making it function!

[@phaolo6]

I wish they also balanced the other people's audio tho, it often passes from too low to too loud. Tom gets expecially low and sometimes the sound effects cover his voice. I don't know what they changed, compared to the other episodes 🤔

[@MrCodo11]

I cant believe they managed to reunite Ben the middle sliders man, with his brother Sully the slightly less centered slider man.

[@QaRajhCreations]

Sully "Slightly less centered slider-man, with more giggles and the Chelsea slider at max" Beau-Brown

[@boxlflox9094]

No rolls barred and mystery quest crossover is not something I thought I needed.

[@thefunkybabaganoush]

They also did one on their channel as well (Chaotic Neutral their TTRPG channel) kzbin.info/www/bejne/mGqYqXeJgZ6hgM0

[@boxlflox9094]

@thefunkybabaganoush cool, I forgot they were creating a TTRPG channel.

Holy set design. This has to be the prettiest Mystery Quest yet!

[@frockrock774]

I agree

[@christinaem1496]

As an actual geordie, Sully’s geordie accent gets my seal of approval 👍🏻 So good 😅

[@geordieghoulette7142]

It's very Bob Mortimer/Paul whitehouse when they do Geordie 😂

[@Imwritingthisnotefrombeyondthe]

Lydia's character is amazing, can definitely see her get more comfortable playing a charactar, aboslutely hilarious.

[@Joshml98]

Its very Nadja from What we do in the shadows its great. "I make Dinosaur man... but with no Anus or Death problem "

[@TopLob]

Lydia is so damn funny. She always come up with some weird shit that cracks me up!

[@mik3yc4li10]

Lydia has got to have more confidence in her accents, they're so good and convincing in my opinion! Each one of her characters have so much character, and they adapt so well With everyone else's, well done on her part! Everyone else was great too ! I'm so sad I have to wait a week for this to continue haha

[@darthvaderyan]

Yeah, I am really impressed with her accent in this one

[@matthewmarting3623]

I’m impressed with her character acting in general.

[@Yasha277]

She's never said it was how convincing they are, her issue she's said is that they're never consistent. She's correct on this, they do constantly shift.

[@Joshml98]

Lydia is just playing Nadja from what we do in the shadows and i love it.

[@sleepytimetaquito]

That is exactly what it is

[@wingedbeegoddess7392]

Lmao true

[@andrewrobinson4019]

Man, the “World-Weary Step-Dad & Step-son who have wacky adventures every other weekend” dynamic is something I need more of

[@xKaninen]

Incredible chemistry

[@DoABarrelRol1l]

very true : (

[@nia7558]

50:00 kills me. In fact, everything from the little Geordie child kills me

[@INMRuben]

Lydia's character weird stories were absolutely amazing 🤣 Loving this Dino Island!

[@_Uhtcaru]

I hadn't heard of No Rolles Barred or Chaotic Neutral until they did a collab on their channel with Tom. In the time since then I've become a huge fan of theirs and have been SO excited for their Mystery Quest appearance!! Let's go dino bros!!

[@Relyx]

Literally the same for me. I'd had the first Communopoly in my recommended vids for ages but not watched it or any of their other content. I'm now super into them and have been devouring the back catalogue. I've watched every House Rules and I'm about a third of the way through all the Board Game Club videos. Sully and Blair are my favourites, but honestly they're all great.

[@_Uhtcaru]

@@Relyx haha nice! I've also just about binged the full House Rules playlist and monopolys, only seen a handful of board game clubs tho so i think you must he ahead of me lmao

[@RubelliteFae]

The only things I had seen of them before was House Rules. There were some fun ones, but the most memorable was "Monopoly, But COMMUNIST" where Dom played Stalin. Very funny

[@somecallmetim4490]

Their "No Rolls Barred plays Blood on the Clocktower" games are fantastic if you're a fan of the deception genre of games.

[@Relyx]

I'm so fucking hyped to have Sully and Laurie on here. Especially with Ben and Lyds (Tom is a given of course). To prove channel crossovers work, I watched the Cthulhu game on Chaotic Neutral with Tom in it, fell in love with Sully in particular, and ended up subbing to No Rolls Barred and am now working through their back catalogue. I've watched all of House Rules and I'm now 50 videos deep into the Board Game Club vids.

[@spyro454]

Lydia really stole the show in this one! 😆This has been brilliant so far!

[@TwilightLink293]

Once again, another superb performance by Lydia, with that accent and her character's "origin story"!

[@_Uhtcaru]

For a second I was like, "Should I not watch this straight away to avoid having to wait a whole week til next episode?" But then I realised there's no way I could resist the call of MYSTERY QUEST!!!

[@charlessturgeon8408]

I have a 2 hour drive to work, thought I should save it for that. But here I am ....

[@TopLob]

Mystery Quest is the best!

[@RubelliteFae]

I made it two days.

[@snarkbotanya6557]

Ben Edgar and Sullivan Beau Brown right next to each other is a seating arrangement made in comedy heaven.

[@pluto-esque]

Lydia's character is fucking fantastic

[@anononomous]

Lydia: "quite sensible and serious" 3:44 Later:

[@liamhall1744]

53:25 XD

[@Shaniq307]

53:22 Lydia's story is so funny. I laughed so incredibly hard. 🤣😂

[@notaproblemmm]

Fucking loved that whole spiel from Lydia at 53:25

[@5hadow5talker]

Love it when someone can make Tom cry laugh, and this is one of those instances

[@malticfarm5166]

East Lydia is best Lydia. love it. cant wait for more NRB & YOGS RPG, and the end of Escape from Dino Island!

[@aaronkiernan7441]

Amazing start. Members only video was an amazing addition. Absolutely living for Lydia's deeply disturbing doctor anecdotes. Cannot WAIT to hear more from her. Ben has also knocked it out of the park as usual with his comedic character concept that never detracts from the group. And our 2 guests are on good form also Dino D.A.N. is smashing fun. Can't wait to see where this goes next and what the mystery is - with the Roman centurion, could it be time travel...

[@cinemaker321]

After Tom's appearance on their channel I've been binging No Rolles Barred non stop. Such a good crossover.

[@dragonzord6615]

Their blood on the clocktower is S+ content, especially the live stuff. Imagine some of the yogs in that chaos!

Loving Laurie's incredibly specific Jurassic Park character reference

[@milesroy9564]

Anyone else listen to the pre-intro scene about lizard people and municipal governance and think to themselves "The sounds fucking hilarious. I want to watch THAT."

[@ryankunst668]

That could be made into a Call of Cthulhu game. There are shapeshifting reptilians in the Cthulhu Mythos.

[@necromental]

The best yet. Lids was on point!

[@LakierosJordy]

As a very dedicated yogs and no rolls barred viewer this overlap broke my brain for a brief moment!

Loving the fact that Laurie is clearly a dinosaur nerd and a massive Jurassic Park fan.

[@CoreTendency]

Last time I saw Sullivan, he was suffering from amnesia on a different island... And he had wings!

[@crab_with_no_legs]

YES! It's him, the Man, the Myth, the Legend, it's Birdman!

Tom guided me right to No Rolls Barred, allowing to get acquainted with a bunch of amazing roll players, only to lanch them right back into Mystery Quest. And all that in a Dinosaur themed adventure!!! Whaaaaaatttt 😮😮😮❤🦖🐦🦕

[@willis32]

Tom on NRB and Mr Beau Brown on Mystery quest. I've never been so happy

[@totallycarbon2106]

What an incredible cast of both players and characters! The dysfunctional step dad to Geordie son duo, Lydia's perfect Nadjia impression as a mad scientist and the mad Dino D.A.N are all show stealers!

[@natemorse8047]

I absolutely adore the start of new campaigns. New faces, new characters to meet, and being a member gets me that extra character creation video so I get two Tom videos in one day. That's a lot of Tom.

[@Tonzor]

Having watched mainly the more weird Mystery Quests it feels weird to see Lydia act so normal 😂😂

Lydia being a staple on Mystery Quest is everything I ever needed. Love her leaning into her crazy character stories!

If anyone can weaponize Dad energy, my money's on Ben.

[@rikardstahl2675]

Thank you Tom for running these games, and thank you again for introducing me to Sully, Laurie, and in extent, DOM(!!!!!!!!!). Also the plethora of content who these people are affiliated with. My lazy butt finally made a Patreon account to support you all.

[@fleacythesheepgirl]

Such a great crossover, I need more of this. You guys are like the Olympic ping pong players like bam 💥 bam 💥 bam 💥 back and forth, but with jokes. Also Lydia’s backstory was amazing 🤣

[@joshuawood9224]

i don't know why but caspers voice combined with the delivery of "name another way" reminds me of watching a pantomime 😂😂😂😂😂

Im a simple man i see Sully and Laurie i clicked on the video so glad i did had no idea this channel existed and i remember the Guy running the game from Call of Cthulhu.

[@aBendorff]

I love the slight lack of dinosaur knowledge leading to fun sentences like "The gallimimus is on the hunt" Sure maybe for a rat or such but your really making it sound like a really dangerous ostrich.

[@elusiveillithid2633]

To be fair, that's *very* Jurassic Park!

[@Locus7]

Sure, they didn't really have the teeth for tearing up other animals, but Wikipedia says they were 6m long, I guess about 3x as bulky as a Cassowary, with some serious limbs and claws. Killing and eating animals significantly smaller and weaker than them (like a young or injured adult human) might have been part of their deal if they weren't strictly herbivores. You're probably right though. I guess I just wouldn't want to tangle with something that big, considering ostrich, cossawary, goose, and pelican behavior.

[@poilboiler]

Think of it as a 6m goose with a temper to match.

[@armata_strigoi_0]

​@@Locus7 You absolutely wouldn't want to piss one off, their kicks would be lethal, but they were not equipped to prey upon anything much larger than a rat. Their skull morphology simply doesn't allow for it.

[@thewingedporpoise]

​@@elusiveillithid2633it's very Sci-Fi with stop motion dinosaurs and scantily clad women, a classic, or serialized dips into dinosaurs from pre-existing media, but not really Jurassic Park

[@thedominator8093]

I absolutely loved this episode, can’t wait for the next part. The choice of very docile dinosaurs did throw me off however.

[@cyriell]

I feel like these dinosaurs are fucked up in a way, mutated or whatever, a gallimimus can NOT crawl over walls etc as far as i know theyre herbivores and fast sprinters, not crouch wall walking carnivores and especially how tom worded it there is something off about it P.s quick correction after google theyre omnivores but i believe theyre eirher scavengers or hunting small prey (insects crustacians etc) but definitely not humans (appearently theyre 2m tall so an average 1.7-1.8m tall human is most likely out of their chosen range)
