From action films to history books, there’s a lot of gameable material in the world, but some things are more gameable than others. Find out what works and what doesn’t. Plus, shout outs, anecdotes, and more!
\\nShout Outs
\\n
\\n* We Have Always Lived in the Castle: An excellent novel about a most unusual pair of sisters.
\\n* Mysteries at the Museum: It’s a TV show, about mysterious things in museums. Not really though. They explain what the thing is.
\\n* Death Skid Marks: Drive! Shoot! Take Drugs! Die! Play Again!
\\n* Nazi Mega Weapons: Nazis built really big guns. Mega usually means one million but here it means big. Not that I’m being pedantic.
\\n* Binary Domain: Shoot robots! Chat with teammates! Shoot more robots! Not that French robot, he’s cool.
\\n* Fordlandia: A book about Henry Ford’s failed rubber plantation in Brazil. Fascinating history and great writing.
\\n* Plague Evolved: Kill people with plagues in video game format.
\\n* Save Game: A new setting for Fate Core. Fun, although it needs a few tweaks. Pay what you want, so no excuse not to get it.
\\n* Earthworm Gods I and II: Apocalyptic horror novels about a rainy end of the world.
