yeah 6/18 or 4/20 would be the phase timings, and it would be scheduled for a specific date (e.g. december 13th or 14th)

i think if i can get kyo or amelia +1 iā€™ll probably be fine though based on what u said

#11392

ok if itā€™s a game-game you should probably have two other hosts (since normally weā€™d require two hosts, and if you have to dip it will still have two hosts) but Iā€™d want to check with the other mods

I think a giant puzzle box game would be my dream game, though I havenā€™t the slightest clue how Iā€™d pull that off in a way that all players would enjoy.

12/12 mash-esque iin terms of irl playtime ig

I mean in terms of, ā€œThere is a central mystery at the heart of this game, and the players are seeking it out while chasing their own objectives.ā€
I had a draft (a scrapped draft; looking at you, benguined) for an FAM-size game where players were members of the Fortress of Lies prison and were all trying to chase out the mafia while figuring out how they killed, what the prison was for, and how to escape the prison entirely.

The problem is gameplay: I want to try and balance a sense of mystery without turning things into DnD.

Iā€™m fine with it being harder to host.
The problem is simply figuring out the design.

Itā€™s hard to think of one that would work and harder to think of one that would be appealing to people who like playing social deduction games.

Itā€™ll probably be closer to Zelda Mafia, but I do want to speed up and spice up the gameplay.
