They begin with Legacy of Cthulhu, but many more followed. Currently, Mind's Vision is crowdfunding Infaernum, a brutal role-playing game that approaches a theme that might be sensitive to some people. In this fictional world, one or more players roleplay characters who experience the last days of all things as doomsday comes near.

We talk about Infaernum and many other amazing Brazilian games in this episode, as well as about his work on the many cool fields he had experience with, the extensive collection of weird horror movies from all over the world and a lot more! It was a very insightful episode! I hoper you enjoy it.
