Mind Pops
 |
Do you remember in school when you sneezed so hard you blew snot into the face of your crush? Well¸ we do. It's called a mind pop. And we want to make sure you never forget it.
Your brain is an amazing engine. It prepares you for your day even when you are not awake. We run countless dream scenarios ahead of time for your well-being. To keep it fresh we pick a setting¸ genre¸ and conflict to codify your anxieties. Go on a first date on Mars running from aliens or buy a house in hell while fighting for demon rights!
We remind you of your most embarrassing moments¸ so you don't have to live through another one!
Game Play
The players are REMnauts guiding their host through a dream simulation meant to represent an upcoming real-life situation. It is a balance of slowly increasing difficulties in the Waking World to succeed in the dream simulation. As a REMnaut you use actions like tapping Whimsy to Imagine Interobject to create dream items to gain a bonus¸ summon Mind Pops to double your dice pool but increases your stress¸ and Deja Reve to reroll at the cost making the dream too Surreal. Expose your host to too much Stress¸ Surreal¸ or Whimsy and they will awaken¸ doomed to create a new mind pop in the Waking World!
Includes
Rules¸ Two Premade Dream Simulations¸ a Playthrough¸ and Waking World outcomes
