What We Played: Our Reputation Precedes Us (Remember Tomorrow)

Our Reputation Precedes Us (July 29)
Remember Tomorrow
players: Josh, Cy, Kevin, Martin, Ben (with Michelle observing)

Hackers, assassins, terrorists, vigilante mobs, cultists, and one unhappy middle manager trying to get out of the rat race...

Five players is normally a crowd for any story game, but I think everyone did an exceptional job of listening to everyone else's character threads and weaving them together. Even though we only had one brutally tragic ending (Ino finds forbidden love comes with a bullet), no one beat the factions and got what they wanted: Suki Teng came very, very close, but in the end just traded one corporate master for another. That's cyberpunk for you.


(Halfway into the game we noticed that the central nemesis, the mega-corp Hanover Group, had not actually done anything bad yet, but everybody hated them anyway. We joked that they needed a new corporate slogan: "The Hanover Group: Our Reputation Precedes Us")
Story Games Seattle was rebooted in March 2010 as a weekly public meetup group for playing GMless games. It ran until March 2018, hosting over 600 events with a wide range of attendees.

Our charter was: Everyone welcome. Everyone equal. No experience necessary.
