Gamesmashery

Let’s chat for a little while about the idea of using one kind of game to generate ideas for another. I go deep into gamer geekery this episode to explore the idea of creating scenarios for tabletop RPGs using other role playing games or even board games.

In my ramblings I bring up a blog article by James Walls about using Small World in this way – that article can be found HERE.

I also mention a few other games that may be of interest – here are some links for those:

Dungeon Crawl Classics
Fiasco
Dungeons & Dragons
Dawn of Worlds
The Quiet Year
Microscope
Dungeon World
Lady Blackbird
In a Wicked Age
Vampire: the Masquerade
Durance
