Saving the city is hard and tiring work. Right now we're at the headquarters of our superhero team after a long day of heroics. And really? Everyone just wants to go home. Break Room is a game about one-upping your coworkers. In this short GMless comedic storytelling game, each player comes up with their own superhero employee. Then everyone takes turns convincing the other players AND characters why they are the ones who deserve to go home early today! You can Rant, Gush, Dish or even Throwdown to get your way. After three rounds that get shorter and shorter as your break ticks down, one character will emerge victorious and gets to go home early! Break Room is part of The Ultimate Micro-RPG Book, an anthology of 2-page games. This means it's very rules-light and very easy to learn, but players should be comfortable using their own imagination without many rules to hold on to. 

This game will be great if you like collaborative storytelling, comedy, and superheroes. We'll create characters together at the start of the game.

Any journey can become a legend! Make up your own campfire story, myth or fairytale in Mythology. It's a GMless storytelling game where everyone collaborates to tell a new tale inspired by the images on a whimsical deck of tarot cards. Players make up their characters by mixing several cards, then take turns drawing cards to set up the initiating event and obstacles for other players to tackle. Together everyone will weave the story of a new legend and discover how the city got saved! No knowledge of tarot cards is needed and we'll use a non-traditional deck of images to inspire us. Mythology is part of The Ultimate Micro-RPG Book, an anthology of 2-page games. This means it's very rules-light and very easy to learn, but players should be comfortable using their own imagination without many rules to hold on to. This game will be great if you like collaborative storytelling, mythology, legends, fairytales, interpreting images and/or tarot. 

We'll create characters together at the start of the game.

For the city to survive, it must move. Hammer of the Earth is an adventure game about humans who worship the last machine in a world ruled by vines. You are Outriders, individuals who ensure the fuel supply for Hammer. It's the last bastion of civilization in the form of a gargantuan train, each carriage housing ten thousand souls, navigating an endless network of tracks. If the train stops, they are all doomed. The Navigator (GM) picked you from your various factions to keep the train moving. Presented with a limited clock and numerous obstacles, can you get back in time? Success or failure, you must all work together, even if in the end only one of you is held responsible for the outcome... Hammer of the Earth is part of The Ultimate Micro-RPG Book, an anthology of 2-page games. This means it's very rules-light and very easy to learn, but players should be comfortable using their own imagination without many rules to hold on to.
