Race to slay a sleeping dragon that has just attacked your city?

A bleak seven samurai knock-off set in fantasy not-Russia?

Fight ninja dwarves in a casino to save your hot babe set to 80’s music?

I’ve got three short documents if you want a better idea, but just answering off the questions in this post will be enough. Obviously I’ll just ask the players, this is just out of interest.

Do you need a really great horse?

Do you need a really great horse? Do you want an entourage of skilled individuals? Do you like having someone die in your place? Well, for the small price of nothing at all, you can have thirty-five brand new hirelings! In: The Book of Hirelings!

Not convinced? There is a dragon hireling.

They’ve won. One is a king, one is pope, the wizard, well, she’s a wizard, and the troll ate a dragon.

But the players want one more run with these characters. So I’m thinking of doing a World’s Largest Dungeon type thing, the biggest Dungeon World has ever seen… but with a twist. 

Here’s what I’m going to print out and give to each of them, your thoughts tavern goers?

Hey gang, I was going to make a big thing based on an adventure my lot have just finished, but half way through I realised spelling everything out kind of goes against DW design; still, have this mess of writings, might be useful to some of you!

MY MISSION: I have 24 hours to make a game fitting for my niece and nephew who want to play a pokemon-like game, and two friends that want to play something like Ni No Kuni (a Playstation game of a similar vein). This is both because I like ’em, and as a game design bet with one of the guys playing.

In one hour, having stolen basic moves from Apocalypse World and Dungeon World, and tweaked them to say: “When you command your curio…” rather than “When you…” and having created a weird system where the monster and the character that owns them share the same stats, I have “Curio World”, version 0. Not much else.

Oh, also: Sorry about the fonts and well, every design choice here, it was just for my benefit- If I have a chance after tomorrow I’ll copy and paste it onto something fresh.

I could use some critic.

I’ve made a tiny CC for myself, what do you all think of it? It’s called The Prince of the Gates.

Sorry.

Hey gang, I’m making some races/racial options.

Its still rough at the moment, but would anyone like to take a look to offer critic or just to borrow some stuff for their own game?

So far I’ve completed deep elves, troglodytes, lizardmen and insectmen, and tomorrow I’ll be on to half-demons, giants, goblins and automatons.
