Rules (wip):

I've been playing TTRPGs online with a group of friends for close to a decade and later this year we are planning an in-person meet up. I'd like to find some options for rule-light games that can be learnt quickly, and would play at least mildly well with upwards of 12 players for a mega-session, for 6+ hours of game.

Open to any suggestions to get the ball rolling. Rules-light, big group, go!

Edited to add:

Some suggestions I have received from other places. I haven't looked into any of these but wanted to add for discussion's sake:

  • Everyone Is John
  • the Borg games (Mork Borg, etc)
  • Fate
  • Tiny D6
  • Kobolds Ate My Baby
  • Daethmatch Island
  • Dream Askew
  • Shadowdark
  • Perils and Processes

If you have any experience with these, your input is appreciated!

I once did a 20+ people game session with Primetime Adventures.

We discussed seeting and main characters with a flip chart and then went around one time to play the first episode.

Was great fun for everyone ๐Ÿ˜€

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll look into this
