MAGES
The story behind MICROS' creation is that they were trying to create an adventure game where GMs didn't need lots more preparation work than their audience did - making it possible for anyone (including solo gamers) could enjoy the RPG experience without needing a dedicated player. However, with 3 goals in mind and no real plot structure or twists/turns provided by most of these games that use MAGE systems as inspiration from other GM emulators such as Dungeons & Dragons: A Game Master's Adventure
