I’ve been playing TTRPGs online with a group of friends for close to a decade and later this year we are planning an in-person meet up. I’d like to find some options for rule-light games that can be learnt quickly, and would play at least mildly well with upwards of 12 players for a mega-session, for 6+ hours of game.

Open to any suggestions to get the ball rolling. Rules-light, big group, go!

Edited to add:

Some suggestions I have received from other places. I haven’t looked into any of these but wanted to add for discussion’s sake:

  • Everyone Is John
  • the Borg games (Mork Borg, etc)
  • Fate
  • Tiny D6
  • Kobolds Ate My Baby
  • Daethmatch Island
  • Dream Askew
  • Shadowdark
  • Perils and Processes

If you have any experience with these, your input is appreciated!

  • Hm, that is tricky. You presumably want something that moves very fast, so something were either the options are very limited, or most things are resolved the same way (no rules lookups).

    Did you have a genre in mind?

      We generally prefer fantasy. But don’t hold back a suggestion just because it isn’t.
