@epidiah @lumpley and once things are established, once the rivalries and cooperation between the setting elements richly described throughout the seasons, once this rural setting could be put under a glass dome as stable and permanent; then the bell tolls and one of the setting elements tells how it becomes changed permanently, the other reply and the game ends.

30. Your next game is going to be
Next game to publish : hopefully #Saperlipopette , to play the rapid succession of twists and turns, followed by revelations and investigation, twists, investigation, …, and final wrap up and closing that are characteristic of European comics. GMless, card based. Originally inspired by #SwordsWithoutMaster by @epidiah
I'd like to have an English version of it at some point for the international market.

24. A really short (in pages/In play length and sweet #TTRPG
In #ALastDrink by Guylène Le Mignot we play people who had it but lost it. We're in a bar, and we take turns to narrate our rise and our fall. "Poor you. But if you knew what happened to me…"
Everyone takes 3 pieces of paper, writes on it a name and minimal description of a NPC important in their story. When it's your turn, put those where the other players can reach and take the part. That's it.

20. A scene that made you laugh this year
While walking in a forest, I introduced to my family a subset of rules of #TheHotelOfTheRedLion by @comemartin. We had to describe a place collectively. At your turn, repeat all what was said before and add one more sentence to this description.
My son started by "this is a perfectly normal house", but soon it had a ski slope in the basement, due to a dripping faucet upstairs and alien invaders chilling in the patio.

11. A #TTRPG you love but really needs a new edition
In #MagistratsEtManigances we play a Tang dynasty Magistrate and his assistants investigating crime and maintaining the peace of a district. With deep thinking about improvising intertwined investigations à la Juge Dee or Juge Bao.
Back in 2016, @Rdhuissier and Benjamin Macbeth Kouppi published it in 3 parts in a magazine. It is high time that it gets a standalone revised edition, and why not an English translation. #LeTTRPG
As the dying, I played blindfolded, free of the sight of the other player, and I was able to dive deep in personal and family trauma. It was all the more liberating that I was keeping hidden the connection I had with this character. I revealed it during the debrief because I felt safe.
This game made me recall how my grandmother who died 10 years earlier was a badass character I am glad to have known. It helped me mourn and find closure even years after.

7. A #TTRPG that made you think
#WEIRD■ by kF questions what is real for everyone and what is a subjective construct, like E.A. Poe stories. A single character played by a single player, all the others describe the environment with limited private communication between them. This naturally makes places, situations and NPCs at least a bit inconsistent, flickering between different realities. It's like an exercise in gaslighting.

4. A #TTRPG designer you can't wait to play more games from
kF has blasted my mind several times with #laCléDesNuages #Weird or #Cimetière There is always a high theoretical concept behind but seamless play.
With #PetitsDieux #VagabonderDansLesEtoiles and #LaGriveNoire @Mila has also hit my sweet spot with great efficiency each time. She deconstructs what "telling a story" means and puts great attention into playing material.

3. A new GMless #TTRPG played this year
Melville's #INSURRECTION is a #NoDiceNoMaster where each plays a single fixed role, either a frame or a character. We play in whatever setting we want, but at a time when the social status quo is wavering: will the Order (police) follow what the Power (ruling class) commands? Will the indistinct protests of the People be relayed by the Media ? What will be the characters' trajectories in this trying time?
#LeTTRPG
#SeptembeRPG (English thread)
1. A great #TTRPG first played this year
#LaGriveNoire from @Mila is a PC-less (no typo) game where we play natural and social forces that compete over the direction of the narrative. This is very much an exercise in style of description by zooms or leaps through analogies. There are codified ways of requesting speaking time.

The #TTRPG *For the Queen* by Canadian author Alex Roberts @muscularpikachu has sold more copies in French than in English. And so many hacks!
In this #podcast we talk about how this game was a blast on the French speaking TTRPG scene and how it sparked a wildfire of innovations, some of which are now available back in English. #LeTTRPG #VoulezVousRoleplayAvecMoi #TTRPGpodcast

@epidiah I could cite SwM's tones or motifs, but you are aware of these.
Instead, in a related mood, *la clé des nuages* (the key of the clouds) a 2 player #LeTTRPG by kF has a great way of herding the players into improvising poetry, without ever telling them to do so. One of the player (=the Magus) as a quest but never tell the other (the Image)
The image describes new places *from a prompt by the Magus*.

J'ai une idée. Tout les samedis, on dit sous un post (celui-ci ou un autre) quel sont les #JDR (ou #LeTTRPG ) que vous voudriez tester dans la semaine et si vous cherchez des joueureuses.
Qu'est ce que vous en pensez ?
Moi, cette semaine, je vais faire un "mystère et pains d'épices" avec ma mère... Je joue depuis 1993... Et je n'ai jamais joué avec elle a ma table. Je suis à la fois enchanté et anxieux.
