In the gaming world of 2020, during those unforgettable lockdown times due to COVID-19, I found myself drawn to a game called Among Us. This title masterfully blends straightforward mechanics with elements of trickery and conversation. It quickly skyrocketed to fame as the ultimate online, casual multiplayer game that kept us entertained when the world outside seemed uncertain.

Over time, the creators have made significant adjustments to the fundamental mechanics of this game. Initially, it was simply a straightforward mafia-themed “find the killer” game. Now, it offers expanded character roles (such as the Guardian Angel who can shield a teammate) and alternative gameplay modes, making the experience much more diverse and engaging.

Among the new features, you could purchase customizable character cosmetics, a popular method for generating revenue. Simultaneously, these cosmetic choices open up possibilities for partnerships.

Throughout the past few years, Among Us has teamed up with a variety of popular franchises such as League of Legends, the Scream series, Hololive, and numerous independent games.

What is Critical Role?

Critical Role is a pioneer in the live-streamed tabletop role-playing game category, which started on Geek & Sundry’s platform back in 2015. Later, the cast created their own company, Critical Role Productions, and moved the series to their self-owned channels.

As someone who has spent countless hours immersed in the enchanting world of Dungeons & Dragons, I must say that I am utterly captivated by the concept of a group of voice actors broadcasting their game sessions. The core cast is what truly brings this magical experience to life, and their expertise and passion for the game shine through with every roll of the dice. I find myself looking forward to each new session, eager to see where the adventure takes them next.

  • Ashley Johnson (most known for her role as Ellie in The Last of Us)
  • Travis Willingham (Knuckles the Echidna in Sonic the Hedgehog)
  • Laura Bailey (Chun-Li in Street Fighter)
  • Liam O’Brien (Yasuo in League of Legends)
  • Taliesin Jaffe (The Flash in many DC games)
  • Marisha Ray (Margaret in Persona 4 Arena Ultimax)
  • Sam Riegel (Phoenix Wright in Ace Attorney).

Matthew Mercer, who has gained notoriety from his roles as Cole Cassidy/Jesse McCree in Overwatch and Minsc in Baldur’s Gate 3, serves as the Dungeon Master.

One of, if not the initial significant live-action role-playing series on streaming platforms, Critical Role helped popularize this format. The captivating camaraderie among experienced voice artists and their compelling acting drew in numerous viewers.

Additionally, the series significantly contributed to the resurgence of the Dungeons & Dragons brand during the mid-to-late 2010s, reigniting passion for the tabletop role-playing game format.

The initial campaign adventure from the series has been transformed into an animated TV series on Amazon Prime, titled “The Legend of Vox Machina“.
