Blades in the Dark was inspired by Apocalypse World but is not part of the Apocalypse game line. It is substantially different and, in my opinion, substantially better. I joined a weekly game of Blades in the Dark a few months ago, then started my own weekly game, and have over a dozen sessions now ...

Detective Pikachu is worth watching for many reasons. For example, watching Detective Pikachu enabled me to achieve a kind of enlightenment or altered state of consciousness which I had not previously accessed. Regardless of its merits as a Pokémon movie, it has substantial value as scripture or lon...

As a layperson, this book offers the most convincing-sounding-to-me big-picture take on what the deal is with weight gain and weight loss. The linked review by itself is pretty informative as such things go.

Imagine that you added a resource called Fate Points to Apocalypse World. Fate Points can be used in the following ways: When you miss a roll and the MC is making their move, you can can spend a Fate Point to interrupt them. Choose any MC move that doesn't leave your character better off than they a...

That might just be something our MC introduced then, where stopping a plan (by rescuing a hostage or breaking the doomsday button or whatever) would mark a condition. So the whole thing was a fan patch I guess. I sort of just assumed he knew what he was talking about since it was fun and made sense...

@Frank, Masks basically tells you to use extended tests to work around the fact that all tests are equally difficult. You compare a PC's abilities to the difficulty of the task and then tell the player it will take 0 rolls, 1 roll, >1 roll to get it done. They tried really hard to avoid using actual...
