What's the hardest part of running a roleplaying game? It has to be the preparation. You can't just spontaneously say, “Let's play a roleplaying game” unless someone's already spent hours preparing an adventure for the group. But what if running a great game didn't require any more effort for the game master than it does for the players? What if you could get up and running in - literally - just five minutes?
Strange Revelations makes prepping for an RPG no more difficult or time consuming than setting up a board game, while showcasing the wonder and weirdness of the many recursions lying in the Shoals of Earth. This is a must-have for beginning and veteran GMs of The Strange.
