The Black Boat - Episode 03
In The Black Boat – Episode 03, the castaways press deeper into the impossible islet, hoping for answers that stubbornly refuse to come. Their enigmatic guide, Moeata, offers little beyond cryptic silence, leaving the rogue traders to navigate a landscape that feels increasingly wrong with every step. Curiosity once again proves dangerous. As they probe the island’s secrets, they disturb something in the undergrowth—something that does not take kindly to intruders. On this shore, even the wildlife bites back!

Shiver: Return to Camp Blood – Episode 02
In Return to Camp Blood – Episode 02, the counsellors finally turn in for the night, hoping for a bit of peace after a long day’s work. Instead, they’re treated to a symphony of things that go bump in the woods—restless wildlife, questionable contraband making the rounds, and an encounter with the camp’s… less-than-reassuring locals. Sleep proves elusive, tempers fray, and the uneasy feeling from earlier only deepens. Because at Camp Blood, a “rough night” is rarely just about bad sleep—and the dark has a way of bringing out far worse than weirdos. Support us on Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/mydaughterskeeper

The Black Boat - Episode 02
In The Black Boat – Episode 02, the voyage slips fully into the unreal. Torn from the safety of the Indiscretion, our rogue traders find themselves adrift aboard a strange vessel—one that answers to no wind and no known chart. At its heart sits Moeata, an elderly islander whose calm presence does little to explain the nightmare unfolding around them. Carried across unnatural waters, the party makes landfall on an islet that should not exist—uncharted, unmapped, and wrong in ways that defy easy explanation. The air feels heavy, the silence too complete, and the sense of being watched impossible to shake. Whatever this place is, it wasn’t meant to be found… and it may not let them leave.

Shiver: Return to Camp Blood – Episode 01
In Return to Camp Blood – Episode 01, a ragtag crew of summer camp counsellors—along with one distinctly out-of-place nepo-baby—have spent weeks preparing to reopen the infamous Camp Blood. With the work (mostly) done, they take a well-earned break to enjoy a warm midsummer evening by the lake. But reputations like this don’t come from nowhere. The woods feel too quiet, the past too close, and the sense that something is off hangs heavy in the air. What begins as a moment of calm quickly curdles into unease… because some places don’t forget—and some things don’t forgive. Support us on Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/mydaughterskeeper

The Black Boat - Episode 01
In The Black Boat – Episode 01, our Daddy of Arcane Lore takes a cadre of his G3 Toys crew to the high seas for a tale of salt, superstition, and something far older than either. It’s 1805 in the South Pacific, and the rogue trader Indiscretion is slipping away from the Tahitian islands, skirting danger as the world’s great powers wage war beyond the horizon. But the ocean has dangers of its own. When the crew sights a strange object drifting in the water—something that has no business being there—the voyage takes a turn from daring to deeply unsettling. Curiosity wins out, as it so often does… and the sea begins to answer back.

Eat The Reich: The Menk of Khibiny - Ep 03 The Frozen Maw of Death
Driven into a fortified cave carved deep into the ice and stone, the Gellhorn twins discover that Vottovaara has been hollowed out—not just by soldiers, but by things that were never meant to march under any flag. Soviet fortifications have repurposed the lairs of something else, killing grounds, and sacred stones scratched with symbols no engineer was trained to carve. Inside the frozen dark, the twins face a gauntlet of impossibilities: creatures of the frost and flesh warped remnants of men that no longer obey biology, and predators that learned long ago how to hunt in tunnels where screams don’t carry. Every passage narrows. Every retreat collapses. The cave is not a shelter. It is a throat. And something deep within is swallowing everything the war has left behind. https://www.patreon.com/mydaughterskeeper

Eat The Reich: The Menk of Khibiny - Ep 02 Night of the Frozen Dead
Eat The Reich – The Menk of Khibiny Episode 02: Night of the Frozen Dead The mountain does not sleep. The dead do not stay buried. As the Gellhorn twins begin their ascent of Mount Vottovaara, the signs they have been ignoring can no longer be dismissed as nerves or folklore. Frozen corpses lie where they fell—then stand again. Soviet soldiers, blue with cold and riddled with old wounds, march without breath, without fear, and without orders anyone living remembers giving. The wind howls like a warning. Footprints appear where no one has walked. Cut off from retreat and forced upward by something far worse than gravity, the twins fight through ice, darkness, and ranks of reanimated Red Army dead who should have stayed lost to the snow. Whatever haunts this mountain is no metaphor, no superstition, and no side effect of war. This is not a battlefield. It is feeding time. https://www.patreon.com/mydaughterskeeper

Dad Against The Tide 01 - Esbury or Bust
In this special run of My Daughter’s Keeper, GM Dad returns to the lonely shores of Esbury with Sound Realms special edition production of Call of Cthulhu: Alone Against the Tide—this time determined to improve upon Mo’s…let’s call it ‘chaotically memorable’ original playthrough. With lantern in hand and rules in very selective use, he attempts a more methodical, less panicked, and marginally less disastrous investigation. Will the Keeper’s second attempt bring clarity, competence, or just more eldritch confusion? Join us as Dad braves the tides again, hoping—perhaps foolishly—to do better than his daughter. Dive in and discover whether experience truly is the best teacher… or merely the quickest route to madness. https://www.patreon.com/mydaughterskeeper https://soundrealms.com/collections/call-of-cthulhu

Eat The Reich: The Menk of Khibiny - Ep 01 Frozen Waste
Eat The Reich – The Menk of Khibiny Episode 01: Frozen Waste The engines die. The snow does not. Dropped deep behind enemy lines, the Gellhorn twins emerge into a landscape that wants them dead even before the bullets start flying. Endless white. Black, gnarled pines. Wind that cuts like wire. Somewhere ahead looms Mount Vottovaara—marked on no sensible map, feared by those who know its name, and whispered about by soldiers who didn’t survive long enough to explain why. This is the Winter War as it never made the reports: frozen wreckage half-buried in drifts, Finnish patrols that vanish without tracks, and a wilderness that feels watchful in ways no forest should. Supplies are scarce. Orders are vague. The mission is simple only in the way a trap is simple. As the twins stalk through the frozen waste, something else is moving with them—something old, patient, and very familiar with the taste of men at war. Welcome to The Menk of Khibiny. The cold is the least of their problems. https://www.patreon.com/mydaughterskeeper

As illusions shatter and polite society gives way to chaos, Mo and Tilly are forced into a desperate confrontation where wit, steel, and nerve are all put to the test. Wishes twist, magic turns volatile, and every choice carries a terrible cost.

An Auction at Gritz Manor – 03: Of Ballroom, Bores, and Bedlam
In An Auction at Gritz Manor – Episode 3: “Of Ballroom, Bores, and Bedlam”, the adventurers turn their attention to the guests themselves. Before the auction begins, Mo and Tilly work the ballroom—enduring tedious small talk, trading barbed pleasantries, and quietly probing nobles, collectors, and hangers-on for signs of duplicity. Behind the polished manners and glittering finery, tensions simmer and secrets slip. Alliances form, suspicions sharpen, and what begins as a social obligation threatens to spiral into something far more dangerous. With the auction fast approaching, the line between boredom and bedlam grows perilously thin. help support the show by signing up to our patreon here - https://www.patreon.com/mydaughterskeeper The collection this scenario is from can be bought direct from Obvious Mimic here - https://obviousmimic.com/en-gb/products/sidequest-volume-1-collection-of-solo-adventure-shorts-pdf-epub

An Auction at Gritz Manor – 02: Walkabout
In An Auction at Gritz Manor – Episode 2: Walkabout, Mo and Tilly set off under Lord Gritz’s stern instruction to survey the manor and sniff out whatever threat looms over him and his illustrious guests. Their ‘simple walk about’ quickly turns into a labyrinth of suspicious corridors, secretive servants, and odd relics that seem to hum with their own quiet menace. As the adventures pry deeper into the manor’s secrets they realise the danger may be far closer, and far stranger, than their employer first suggested.

An Auction at Gritz Manor – 01: An Audience with His Lordship
In An Auction at Gritz Manor – Episode 1: An Audience with His Lordship, Mo and Tilly are dispatched by the Adventurers’ Guild on an urgent and unusually delicate assignment. A wealthy, reclusive noble—Lord Gritz—has hired the pair to discreetly investigate a series of unsettling threats against him and the elite guests attending his exclusive auction later that night. Upon arriving at Gritz Manor, the pair find themselves navigating its creaking halls, puzzling over the strange artifacts His Lordship has obsessively gathered, and rubbing shoulders with an assortment of colourful, eccentric, and suspicious characters. Hidden agendas abound, tensions simmer beneath the polite veneer, and something in the shadows seems to be stirring. It’s a race to uncover the danger before the bidding begins… and before it’s far too late. help support the show by signing up to our patreon here - https://www.patreon.com/mydaughterskeeper The collection this scenario is from can be bought direct from Obvious Mimic here - https://obviousmimic.com/en-gb/products/sidequest-volume-1-collection-of-solo-adventure-shorts-pdf-epub

The twins close in on the targets…and discover they’re not the only monsters hunting tonight. https://www.patreon.com/mydaughterskeeper

Their mission: infiltrate occupied France, disrupt the Reich’s supply lines, and reign havoc against the Third Reich. But as their bomber roars over Rouen’s bomb-scarred skyline, something else stirs in the night — something older, hungrier, and far less obedient than the orders they’ve been given. Steel, blood, and black humour collide in this opening episode of Eat the Reich: Operation Nightingale. https://www.patreon.com/mydaughterskeeper

Mork Borg - Solitary Defilement in the Shadow Clink

Shackled to despair, stalked by ruin, and scraping through the filth for any chance at survival, Tilly navigates a dungeon that is less a place and more a disease—where every torch sputters, every corridor hungers, and every choice gnaws the marrow. Will she claw her way out of the Clink’s suffocating dark, or be swallowed whole by the silence between screams? https://1d105.itch.io/solitary-defilement https://www.patreon.com/mydaughterskeeper

Review - Call of Cthulhu: Shadow of The Comet
In this first episode of My Daughter’s Keeper Reviews, we descend into the eerie town of Illsmouth with Infogrames’ Shadow of the Comet. Released in 1993, this cult classic adventure game pulls heavily from Lovecraft’s The Dunwich Horror and The Shadow over Innsmouth, blending comet-chasing astronomy with small-town cult conspiracies. Join me as I revisit a game I first played decades ago, with all the clunky controls, pixel-hunting puzzles, and atmospheric dread that defined early ’90s adventures. Along the way, I’ll be calling out the Mythos influences, reflecting on how the game holds up today, and—yes—admitting where nostalgia might be smoothing over some of its sharper edges. Is it a flawed gem, a forgotten masterpiece, or simply one for the hardcore fans? Let’s light the lantern, steel our nerves, and find out together.
