This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Adventures in a Decadent Underground City
« on: August 09, 2016, 05:42:29 PM »
So,
I'm really really looking forward to the release of Apes Victorious, the new Goblinoid Games release.

http://goblinoidgames.blogspot.ca/2016/03/apes-victorious-coming-this-summer.html?m=1

....but not for the Apes. My favorite Planet of the Apes movie was Beneath the Planet of Apes, specifically because of the psychic mutants living in their underground city. My only question is...what kind of adventures would pcs have if the game was set purely underground?

I'm looking to run a kind of Logan's Run mixed with BtPotA. What can you guys think of in terms of making the game just as exciting and challenging as an above ground game?

Lots of things come to mind.  Escaping getting eaten by a horde of mutated cannibals is always a good one.  Some serious traps and uncovering lost lore is fun.  I'm a huge fan of dwarven kingdoms and I've been thinking about starting a game where you have to retake a lost dwarven kingdom.  In this particular case though you could make it a ape dwarf kingdom?
