My son has asked if I could put together a PbtA style game where the characters are all players in a futuristic version of today’s MOBAs (such as League of Legends and Smite). The idea is that the MOBA is a virtual reality game with its players actually in the game (both Shadowrun’s matrix and Sword Art Online came up in the discussion). Talking it over with him and one of the other possible players we were thinking the game would have scenes both in the ‘real world’ and in the digital world of the MOBA where we would want to be able to play out at least portions of the character’s matches.

Are there any particular PbtA games or hacks out there that would be suggested to either run this with or as a good starting point to build off of to put the game together? We have played DungeonWorld and Masks and I have access to several other PbtA games, but I would be curious what suggestions the community would have in case I’ve missed any good options.

Hi, mates:

I’d like to run a campaing based on Masamune Shirow’s Ghost in the Shell, Appleseed and similar backgrouds. I mean cyberpunk with a lot of high tech personal combat armors but far away from Matrix and the netrunners stuff.

Do you know any hack I can use for this?

Thanks in advance.

I’ve been using the Apocalypse Engine for ages now to play all manner of settings with my buddies and younger family members, today I was asked by a pal if I could “make a game like Harvest Moon, you know, the cute farm game” with input from my niece “and have it be like Undertale (an indie computer game) where no one gets hurt!”.

So I’m calling it Land Poetry. I’ve got like a day; what would you put in it? I’m pretty much going to make it, right now.

I’m thinking about running a campaign of Apocalypse World where the apocalypse happened recently enough that most adult characters would still have first-hand memories from before everything went to hell. Is there any advice/tweaks/custom moves people would recommend?

Has anyone played Legacy: Life Among the Ruins?

Has anyone played Legacy: Life Among the Ruins? can you tell me about the legacy mechanics. I havent seen much on it. Seems like it could be a lot of fun or kind of a flood of half developed characters just to push the age forward.
