I Hope This All Pans Out
I Hope This All Pans Out is a microRPG about panning for Lost Things in the River of Time. You play a time-displaced character who is looking for something from your own time, or at least something that you can claim is from your own time. Then you can try to get back home, or to anywhere and anywhen you want! Make goofy characters with out-of-place backstories and convince your friends that the Martian raygun you just found really did come from your little house on the meadow. The game includes roll tables for characters, backgrounds, and the random items that you find while panning. A single game of I Hope This All Pans Out lasts approximately 30-60 minutes and is best suited for 3-5 players.
