Dungeon World Game Interest

I am thinking of starting up / trying a Dungeon World game. You don't need to be familiar with the system, and to be honest new players would probably work out better (though I have been playing various rp games for years, this would be my first foray into DW, so we can all learn together!). I have the book and would GM the game. As players you will not need anything more than the dungeon world hack pdf which is freely available.

For those not familiar with the game, you can check it out here: http://www.dungeon-world.com/

Basically it is a rules-lite rp heavy game with the players filling in the details and the story just as much as the gm. To quote the designers, "Dungeon World is a roleplaying game that uses sweet modern roleplaying techniques to create an old
school adventure game feel. Together, they make for a fast, fun, driven fantasy adventure game."

I am thinking 4 players plus myself. Any interest?

Re: Dungeon World Game Interest

I'm interested. I've played about two scenes of Dungeon World, both from different games that fizzled out, so my experience is just a shade higher than "none". I really like the "figure it out as you go" style it has for world building, etc. There's a few different classes I wouldn't mind playing, though my personal preference is to keep the game to the basic core-book classes, at least for a first foray into the system.

Re: Dungeon World Game Interest

I have seen quite a few fizzle out. Not sure why exactly, but I will do my best. If we can get a few more people we will have a go at it. I plan on using the DW Hack PDF you can get over at one of the designers (Sage LaTorra) site. You can see that here:http://www.latorra.org/uploads/Dungeon-World-Hack.pdf

There are a few different things, bus since it is easily accessible and free for everyone, it would be the easiest way to go. It has everything players will need.

Re: Dungeon World Game Interest

I'm near my capacity on games, but there's always room for Dungeon World.

I look forward to seeing more.

In reply to Tortuga (msg # 3):

It's also available free at https://sites.google.com/site/dungeonworldsrd/ If you like free and easily linked material.  :)

Re: Dungeon World Game Interest

that moderation suggests it's less easily linked than Tortuga's one! It's also full of ads. The gazetteer thus seems preferable, it's the one I send folks to in the game I'm running.

There's also the Omnibus - http://omnibus.io/ - which is ad-free too, and lets you link to specific moves, eg Divine Intervention.
