Game Wish 82: Three Word Summaries

Game WISH 82 asks:

Sum up one or more games that you GM or play in 10 words or less. (Three is best, but not everybody is that pithy.) Don't restrict yourself to current games if you have great ones in the past.

Three word summaries? A concept I'm familiar with; the late lamented CompuServe RPGAMES forum used three-letter acronyms to make it easy to identify games in the old Compuserve forum structure. Many people came up with short names that could be abbreviated into TLAs. So we had games like "Teatime and Tentacles" (1920s Cthulhu set in Britain) and "Have Spaceship, Will Travel" (Classic Traveller). RPGAMES successor, Dreamlyrics, has continued the practice.

Some current games:

Ahhran Empire Frontiers: "Venus Blood: The Love Boat". I must point out that all the naughty scenes are in the members-only adult area. As the GM, I have to read that stuff...

The Stand: "You forgot to ask which airport, you idiot!" (At least for the UK players)

Edge of Hell: Goths and Groupies: Ümläüt on tour. The game isn't supposed to be all about the adventures of the goth/black metal band, but with three player characters as band members...

Kalyr. With thirteen current players, split over two different sites, I find this game so impossible to summarise that I'll have to leave it to the players themselves. My official title is "A world on the brink of change".

Some older ones:

Hawiian Vacation: "Everyone I know is dead". That GURPS Cyberpunk game did have a rather high body count; any PC whose player vanished was ruthlessly terminated.

Fragments of Chaos: "Everyone I know will soon be dead". Well, it was a Cthulhu game.

Any convention one-shot run by the same GM as FOC: "Everyone will soon be dead".

Then there was the long-running ADnD Spelljammer campaign that became known as "Vikings in Space", so much so that it became the official name of the game.
