A Year of Mad Science [ EDIT ]
This game has been retired! That means it's no longer being run.
Summertime. Never-ending days spent roaming the countryside looking for something to do. Boredom and bliss in equal measure. But underneath the sweet Swedish (or US) summer, something stirs. Something is wrong. Can they solve the Mystery before it is too late?
We'll start with a Session 0 to create characters, determine setting, and help solidify details so everyone is happy with the experience of playing this game.
Principles of the Tales from the Loop game:
1. Your hometown is full of strange and fantastic things.
2. Everyday life is dull and unforgiving.
3. Adults are out of reach and out of touch.
4. The land of the Loop is dangerous, but Kids will not die.
5. The game is played scene by scene.
6. The world is described collaboratively.
