Hey hey…
I realise you won’t all come to an AMERICA run game (though you are invited depending on numbers) but it’s nice to have a forum to sort out what kind of games people are interested in going to, so feel free to help me out as I try to decide what game i will be writing next.
I had a few ideas, the first of which was centered around an Edgar Allen Poe story called ‘the Masque of the Red Death’ where the nobles and lords of the populace attempt to party their cares away while outside the poor are succumbing to the plague. It’s a masquerade setting, very decadent and corrupt with that undercurrent of nasty pervasive death (who invited THAT guy?)
i also wanted to run an upstairs downstairs english manor game but that looks like what kapcom is doing this year so I’ll skip that one…
London subway horror
kinda a cross between neil gaiman’s never where and a stephen king short story called crouch end which scared the hell out of me a while back. essentially a subway reroutes down a forgotten subway tunnel and stops at a station no longer on the line-- if anyone leaves the car they find the outside world subtely and scarily different- a world on top of a world, with no forseeable way back. would love to get some people scared with lights out and crazy noises. has anyone seen that music video by aphex twin with the kids with the crazy faces? kinda like that. i was also thinking this would be cool as a tokyo setting, but may be trickier.
retro 50’s!! leather jacket, red vinyl diner seats, poodle skirts and tight sweaters. oh and some characters and roleplaying. not sure what yet just thought 50’s would be cool. even 50’s new zealand… the queens visit! planning the ultimate prank! hooligans!
kay that’s enough braintorming for me. add in your five cents before they get taken out of circulation.
oh that reminds me. i also want to run a bank heist game- this will require a lot of planning and some smart people. hmmm maybe that’s too hard…
