Not every game at Gen Con is a home run, and Michael Ross doesn't pretend otherwise. 🎯In this episode of Tabletop Cafe, Michael breaks down Gen Con 2026 Day Two: Friday, and it's a tale of two very different gaming experiences. First up: a Spaceballs-themed RPG that had everything going for it on paper. The IP, the humor, the Schwartz jokes... but it struggled under the weight of too many players and execution that didn't quite land. A for effort. D for execution. He still had fun. It just wasn't great. 😅But then? Friday night delivered. Flying solo from his crew, Michael snuck off to play the Marvel 616 RPG run by a convention gaming group called McKenzie's Marauders and walked away calling it his best convention experience with the system in four tries. Everyone got their moment to shine, the GM ran a tight comic-book-style story, and it reminded him exactly why he keeps coming back to Gen Con every year. 🦸‍♂️🎲Along the way, Michael digs into what makes or breaks a convention RPG session. Player count, table chemistry, group cohesion, and why gaming with your crew can rescue even a rough session. Real talk, honest takes, and genuine enthusiasm for the hobby. That's Tabletop Cafe.👇 Drop a comment below: Have you ever played the Marvel 616 RPG?

Gen Con 2026 is in the books and Michael is breaking it all down, one day at a time! 🏰⚔️In this episode of Tabletop Cafe, Michael kicks off his Gen Con 2026 recap with Day One: Thursday. He played not one but two Savage Worlds games run by Ron of the gaming group 37 Zombies. Sspoiler: he thinks Ron might be the closest thing to a lab-designed perfect GM he's ever encountered. High energy, cinematic action, spotlight moments for every player at the table... even when that table seats seven or more. 🎬🧟Michael also dips into the dealer hall, shares a quick look at his own GM-less tabletop RPG Action 12 Cinema (a d12-only love letter to over-the-top cinema), gives a warm shout-out to 37 Zombies' legendary Lori's Midnight Games, and delivers an extremely passionate endorsement of Weber's Grill French onion soup. 🍲 (He had it twice on Thursday. We're not judging.)Whether you're a Gen Con veteran, a Savage Worlds fan, or just someone who loves hearing about the magic that happens when a great GM gets behind a screen, this one's for you. And if you see 37 Zombies on your convention event list? Sign up immediately. Save Michael a seat.👇 Drop a comment below: What's YOUR must-play game or must-eat meal at Gen Con?
