Centuries Outside History is a discord-based oneshot worldbuilding game about space travel, history, and neoliberalism. 2-6 players.
It tells the story of a generation ship that is moving from Earth towards a new world, spending centuries in the empty black space between. The people on board have lived their lives being told their stories don't matter- just a liminal existence to enable a future settlement they won't live to see. This game tells their stories, their struggles, and their experiences living in a world where they are denied the experience of history. It's a story about life under neoliberialsm, capitalism, of denied hope and the potential to imagine a better future.
The game is played using a discord bot- the discord bot feeds story prompts the group uses to build the story of the ship as it engages on its centuries long voyage. The bot serves the purpose that a deck of cards or dice might serve in a more traditional roleplaying game.
Play usually takes between 2 and 3 hours.
