One would think that James Bond “role playing” would involve a lot of bondage and sadomasochism. AND PERHAPS IT DOES.
Which James Bond would you like to be? The dashing Sean Connery? The campy Roger Moore? The forgotten Timothy Dalton? The more forgotten George Lazenby? The spindly Pierce Brosnan? The icy killing machine Daniel Craig?
Once you decide, then you can pick your Bond Girl. For the guys, that’s when the fun begins. Pussy Galore FTW. Or Octopussy. As long as it’s a broad with a vagina-centric double entendre name, you’re good.
There was more to this In Her Majesty’s Secret Service game than I thought when I first saw the ad. It doesn’t exactly trump the Dungeons & Dragons nonsense, but it might fire its Walther PPK in that direction.
One last thing: I’ve never before come across the “World’s Most Famous Secret Agent” phraseology. Fame seems like a bad thing for a secret agent, no?
I remember this ad well, and always wondered about this game. Looks like it might have been fun.
Also, George Lazenby may be forgotten, but he was the classiest of the
Bonds, and On Her Majesty’s Secret Service is definitely in the top three of the films.
This RPG is alot of fun.
