PbtA23 February Digest
The contents of this digest were inspired by dungeon23, an exercise to create a dungeon room a day for every day in 2023. I can’t do that. Instead, I’m writing a “move” every day. A move is a piece of gaming tech used in powered-by-the-apocalypse (PbtA) games, which are tabletop RPGs descended from the systems and philosophies inspired by Meg & Vincent Baker’s Apocalypse World.  Some of these will be useful in PbtA games. Some will be useful in any game. Some are completely useless for a game but might be fun to read. Check out the first digest, which is free! And these are not far off from my Reading the Apocalypse or Game Genie Apocalypse projects.
