Played Orbital by @mousehole.press press this weekend, which was excellent! Loved the station we came up with, and Orbital is proving to be a big inspiration for Atlas Imprecatis

It is day 2 of my #ZineQuest project Atlas Imprecatis' brief, tumultuous life on Kickstarter! It remains an extant project that can be backed, should you choose.

We played "Mythomorphosis" 2ed by @gordiemurphy.bsky.social - a GMless, myth-building TTRPG to explore how stories evolve over time and generations, influenced by the people who tell them, record them, and adapt them into new forms.

I enjoyed it!

Atlas Imprecatis has players take on the role of Investigators caught up in one of these urban legends: one that you'll create yourselves as you play.

Joining me on this project are @rufflejax.bsky.social doing microfiction writing, and @jrgdrawing.bsky.social doing art! I hope youโ€™ll take a look.

Inspired by stories about urban legends like the Ring and the Left Right Game, Atlas Imprecatis uses the No Dice No Masters system to let players create and explore their own urban legend, telling the story of those who are drawn into it. Coming later in February!
