| An all-ages storytelling roleplaying game inspired by the movies of the 80's and shows such as Stranger Things. I originally designed this as a game to play with my daughter who was really wanting to try gaming but was a bit too young to take in all of the mechanics. It then developed into this, which was playtested in both a school and at a few small, daring tables. It's designed to be child-friendly and is ideal for use in schools as an education or expression aid, promoting relationships, character development, and basic maths and language skills. Due to its easy system (which resolves scenes based on one six-sided dice roll) it is also ideal for a quick game for experienced players which requires minimum preparation. Want to play through a whole story from start to finish in one night? Need a quick fill-in for when one of your group is missing from your mega-campaign? This game is designed to focus on telling the story quickly and easily so you can focus on enjoying yourself. A story can be played-out in an hour or two, like a movie, or can be strung together into a campaign. The rules for campaign play are included in here along with a whole host of other options. The default setting for the game is playing as kids investigating strange events in their local town, but there are optional rules included for running adult characters and the system lends itself to playing in any world or style. It includes 9 quick-build story ideas for adapting some of your favourite classic 80s movies; a random adventure generator; 5 different settings which cover classic fantasy, sci-fi in a galaxy far away, fairies, ponies and Saturday morning cartoon heroes; as well as an introductory adventure (which you can play solo). The names have been changed to protect the innocent (and copyright laws). There is a blank character sheet, as well as printable tools for plotting out your stories and detailing scenes. In the spirit of encouraging accessability to all, especially young gamers, this product is distributed without watermarks and any part of it can be printed out for the purposes of play. |
