Mighty Morphin’ Microscope
Oh sure, you could use Microscope to make an epic history, defying chronological order and jumping back and forth to explore the moments in the history that interest you. Or you could hold up your glossy black book and yell “too easy!” and use it to do something else entirely…
- City Building with Microscope — Very clever idea for taking the three-level hierarchy of Microscope and using it to build and flesh out the neighborhoods and details of a city. Could you apply the same Microscope hierarchy to, well, anything? Yes you probably could…
- Microscope meets West Marches — No, seriously. The Bad Wrong Fun campaign is going to follow a West Marches model of play, but create the game world with Microscope and Dawn of Worlds. There’s also a discussion thread on rpg.net.
There’s a whole lot of clever in the air this month…
Thanks Shannon! That sounds really interesting. Tell me how it goes.
Just purchased the game and hope to use it as a preview/review for a chronology of themes in history for my Social Studies class. Thank you for pushing the RPG field in such an innovative way.
