Nations have borders. Police have badges. Dragons breathe fire. You work for money.
That’s the world we’ve come to expect. But in this world—the world we create together—we can question those assumptions and imagine alternatives. And instead of just making one world, we’ll make a whole string, each exploring a different slice of what could be… all in a few hours.
In This World is a fast game of big creativity. It is designed from the ground up so that anyone can play it, even someone who has never played any kind of story game before, and have no problem just jumping right in. It overcomes the usual challenge of inventing ideas out of the blue by starting with a framework of real world facts, things we already know, and then inviting players to stand those ideas on their head and imagine how the world could be different. It’s a recipe that leads to effortless creativity and surprising results, all while spurring new thoughts about the world around us. And it is pretty darn fun.
