Over on the bird site Sean McCoy suggested buying a journal and making a megadungeon one room at a time throughout 2023. And I love that idea, so I'm doing it. He tagged it #dungeon23 over there so I'm going to use the same tag here.
Day 1. First chunk will have 5 rooms and then starting next week it will be 7 room chunks.
@loottheroom I love this idea, but I’m not a huge dungeon guy. Need to think of a comparable alternative…
@ickbat @loottheroom same here! I'd love to think up a similar concept for a drama-oriented game... a town with 365 NPCs? A building with 365 apartments?
@comemartin @loottheroom What if you lean into the 12-and-7 thing a little more? Like, 12 districts with 7 NPCs each?
Or you could also build some history: 4 districts with 7 NPCs, in 3 different time periods (Jan-Apr = 1888; May-Aug = 1988; Sep-Dec = 2088, or something like that).
@ickbat @loottheroom Ok NOW you're talking!
I'm actually writing a novel-in-the-guise-of-a-guidebook that's precisely like that, so turning it into a RPG thingy is totally my vibe!
