Character Sheet on a 8-track tape.
This game had the most amazing props imaginable and it also hit my nostalgic childhood sweet spot. My only issue is that it used Savage Worlds and it was a mini-heavy, combat-heavy game, so the four combats took up most of the game and there was less time for role playing. Also with such long combats, I ran out of cool moves to make. You can only do so many cool things in combat. I think the game might have been better using Spirit of 77 RPG instead.
The scenes were interesting, the GM did a great job, did great NPC voices, the props were top notch. I mean, who would make a character sheet out of 8-track tapes?
Overall, I had a fun time.
=== SPOILER SECTION START ===
Initial setup, where Cannibal Pork Farmers with Dogs attack us. Our mission, to deliver the sleeping magically bound Carrie to a safe location.
Our combat got cut short as Daisy Duke did a gymnastics move into the cab of the still running pork delivery truck (the bad guys') and backed it over most of the bad guys.
Our second combat was during a road convoy and we got chased by wolf-men on motorcycles. This combat got a bit long as we started to run out of ideas as we defeated pack after pack of regenerating wolf-men.
Our 3rd combat was in a bar where the Blues Brothers were singing Raw Hide. When Fat Elvis volunteered to sing, he got dissed as an Elvis Impersonator. Bar Fight!
Our 4th and final combat was between Elvis and Gene Simmons, the KISS Demon.
In the end, Evel Knievel jumped his motorcycle into a giant evil monstrosity from hell and blew it up.
After everyone had their epilogue, I got to do my epilogue, Evel's.
A government helicopter shows up after everyone leaves the scene.
The dialog between the guys picking up Evel's body:
1st suit: That's a lot of money, are you sure?
2nd suit: We'll make him, faster, stronger, better.
1st suit; $6 million, that's a lot of money. You better be sure.
