Appliance Adventures

Monday, June 29th, 2009

Appliance Adventures is a narrative role playing game where the players take on the role of intelligent kitchen appliances. The game emphasizes teamwork and exploration over combat.

This is arguably a playable game, but it doesn’t look very good. There is much missing from this first draft: graphics, fit & finish, a fleshed-out sample adventure, and a Narrator’s section.

The world of Appliance Adventures is very similar to our own world, advanced fifteen years into the future. Science has made great strides in the field of simulated intelligence. True artificial intelligence beyond the level of simple animals has evaded researchers to this point, but futurists and pundits (ever a reliable source) think that it is right around the corner.
