Matt Chat 166: Sandy Petersen on Ghostbusters, Pen & Paper, Pirates!, and Lightspeed

Sandy Petersen is one of the greatest game designers in the history of pen & paper. In this episode, The Master talks about Elf Quest, which he deems a failure, and Ghostbusters, which he deems a triumph. Have you played the Ghostbusters RPG? Maybe not, but chances are you've played the many copycats, who ripped off Sandy's unique gameplay elements. Sandy also talks about his days at Microprose, when he developed under-appreciated games like Lightspeed and Hyperspeed.
