The Story In 1954, the American government ordered the construction of the world’s largest particle accelerator. The facility was complete in 1969, located deep below the pastoral countryside of Boulder, Nevada. The local population called this marvel of technology The Loop. In this roleplaying game, based on acclaimed artist Simon Stålenhag’s books, you play teenagers in the late Eighties, solving Mysteries connected to the Loop. Choose between character Types such as the Bookworm, the Troublemaker, the Popular Kid, and the Weirdo. Everyday Life is full of nagging parents, never-ending homework and classmates bullying and being bullied. Explore the secrets of the Loop in two main game settings – based on the Swedish Mälaren Islands, the other on Boulder City, Nevada (we are playing in Boulder!). The Mysteries let the characters encounter the strange machines and weird creatures that have come to haunt the countryside after the Loop was built. The kids get to escape their everyday problems and be part of something meaningful and magical – but also dangerous. I'll be running the adventures from the Core Rulebook ("Summer Break and Killer Birds," "Grown Up Attraction," "Creatures From the Cretaceous," "I, Wagner," and a 5th newer mystery called "The Mystery Landscape"). As someone who grew up in the 80s and remember those days (as a child at least) fondly. Things seemed a lot less complicated. I love the 80s feel of "Stranger Things" and the whole vibe of "Gravity Falls" and this campaign is like if "Gravity Falls" was set in the 80s! This is a mini-campaign that is expected to last all of 5 adventures, which will last about 5-10 sessions. If there's enough interest, I might be willing to extend it out to a full-on longer campaign. About the GM I've been a GM/DM for over 28 years (I'm almost 43), and have run a multitude of games across several game systems for a large number of groups. My DM style varies based on the needs and wants of my players: like combat? You've got it! Want roleplay? Done! Want a nice mix of everything? I'm your guy! I run with few hombrew rules (only stuff to make things easier on the players!). This campaign is pretty easy on how rules and dice rolls are dealt with, so we shouldn't have too many issues there. My goal is to say "yes!" whenever possible. Even if it's "yes, but..." or "yes, and..." I'm a fair adjudicator of the rules and I'm quick to think on my feet!
