This tongue-in-cheek, beer-and-pretzels roleplaying game is filled with outrageous cliches, over the top action, ridiculous pastiches and just down-right good old fashion fun. The Floating Vagabond, after which the game is named, is a strange bar at an inter-dimensional, galactic crossroads, that sees all kinds of people, aliens and things pass through. Think the Cantina from Star Wars, but with more hot rods and Elvis. It is essentially an adventure generator ("You all meet in a bar...") that will send your characters (whatever they might be!) on outlandish adventures. Your enjoyment of the game will depend on your ability to poke fun of everything and your tolerance for a game where one of your vital stats is "Oops! Points". I have a high tolerance for such things, so enjoyed it a great deal! My favourite part? The "Schticks", which are things like "the Schwarzenegger Effect", or the "Errol Flynn Effect", which are essentially cliches your character can access for comedic effect. The art is very cartooning, but totally appropriate for the game, and some of the images are very funny! Check it out!

This is freaking hilarious! Imagine if you took the tech genre, fantasy genre, and the intrigue genre and decided to have the super serious nature of each take a hike. You can try to play this all serious, but why would you?! This game seems it was MADE so that you can have a night of laughter with your mates while chucking dice. When your Shadowrun games gets a bit too intense and your World of Darkness gets a bit too heavy, break this game out. It's ideal for the one night long session and you'll never have the same thing twice. Be careful not to drink while playing. Soda REALLY hurts when it comes out of your nose.

This is a hilarious Beer and Pretzel RPG. Very easy to run and makes for a great day of roleplaying. I am glad I picked this one up. The possibilities are endless.
