Dungeon World - RPG. Players wanted

[Shamikebab]

This Sunday (25th) we are hoping to try a new pen and paper RPG over the internet, Dungeon World. Dungeon World is an award winning 'traditional' Fantasy RPG similar to D&D in setting but with some rather different mechanics to most RPG's. Here is some blurb:

Playing Dungeon World means having a conversation; somebody
says something, then you reply, maybe someone else chimes in. We
talk about the fiction—the world of the characters and the things
that happen around them. As we play, the rules will chime in, too.
They have something to say about the world. There are no turns or
rounds in Dungeon World, no rules to say whose turn it is to talk.
Instead players take turns in the natural flow of the conversation,
which always has some back-and-forth. The GM says something,
the players respond. The players ask questions or make statements,
the GM tells them what happens next. Dungeon World is never a
monologue; it’s always a conversation.
The rules help shape the conversation of play. While the GM
and the players are talking, the rules and the fiction are talking, too.
Every rule has an explicit fictional trigger that tells you when it is
meant to come into the conversation.
Like any conversation, the time you spend listening is just as
important as the time you spend talking. The details established
by the other people at the table (the GM and the other players) are
important to you: they might change what moves you can make, set
up an opportunity for you, or create a challenge you have to face.
The conversation works best when we all listen, ask questions, and
build on each other’s contributions.

You can read a guide to the game on the official site here

We are looking for two more players (currently have 2 and a GM) who are up for trying a one off session of about 3 hours or so on Sunday afternoon. No experience is needed, it's about having fun and trying a new game Anyone interested?

Also another great thing about dungeon world is that the rulebook is about $10 for pdf version. So a very small upfront cost.

Pretty much identical to Apocalypse World?

It uses the Apocalypse rule set but in a fantasy setting.

Perfect setting to go all out Insano Like Drano

For anyone hesitant, its not a bad system, fairly simple but works well with experience being awarded for using your skills.
