May 25. That means another anniversary for Game Central. This year, I decided to add a new section to Role-Playing Games. Paranoia makes its debut on the site! I didn’t know what I was getting myself into when I bought the first Paranoia box set twenty years ago. I knew it was a humorous sci-fi RPG, which was very well-reviewed. Other than that, I wasn’t sure what to expect. What I discovered was a dark, satirical, extremely funny game intended to be entertaining to read. These weren’t dry, boring rule books. The material was fun and often hilarious, particularly from the gamemaster’s point of view.
