My Little Pony: Friendship is Mandatory at One Shot Saturday (Tabletop RPGs)

My Little Pony: Friendship is Mandatory
Welcome to Equestria! Where every little pony helps each other by joining in team-building picnics, sharing all the chores, and throwing fun parties. But is all this joy bringing you down? Don’t worry! The Ministry of Friendship is here to help After all, in a land built on goodness and love, there’s absolutely no reason to worry. Maybe a Harmony Audit will help…

Cy_Borg
A man approaches. Where his left eye should be, wires pulse with a faint electrical buzz. Charlie has done unspeakable things trying to pay off his debt to the Lucky Flight Arcadia. Tonight he offers you a job: delete his file. Erase the debt. Lucky Flight is a place of dungeon synth, anachronistic arcade machines and old-school casino, where the weakest minds find temporary reprieve—and permanent ruin.

Cracker Barrel Has Fallen
You all, the employees and patrons of your town’s Waffle House, are the last line of defense before this zombie horde fully takes over your town. “I take no pleasure in reporting that Cracker Barrel has fallen,” you hear from your general manager over the old, hand-crank radio. You knew this was coming. First it was Zaxby’s, then Bojangles, and now Cracker Barrel. This zombie horde will stop at nothing. “The National Guard can evacuate you, but they can’t get there for 6 more hours. Hold down the fort until then, don’t let anyone leave, and I’ll see you under the yellow sign.” The radio goes silent.

WHAT IS ONE-SHOT SATURDAY?

It's a weekly meet-up in Sheung Wan/Central, focusing on indie games and single-session games (one-shots). 而家所有游戏係英文嘅但如果你要嚟玩中文游戏，我哋會無任歡迎。只要湊啱玩家就行！

You can drop in and play at any One-Shot Saturday – you do not need to have played in a previous session or commit to playing again. Whether you've played an RPG before or not, you're welcome to join us.

Please arrive on time as once the games begin it becomes difficult to properly introduce latecomers.

Join the conversation, make plans, suggest games to play, etc. —

WHAT IS A TABLETOP RPG?

It's a game in which you never know where the next stop will be, because it’s all down to the decisions you and your fellow players make. Usually one person is the Game Master (or "GM"). Everyone else will be players, taking the role of the characters in the game. The players get to say what their characters say, think, and do. The GM describes everything else in the world.

Then... we play to find out what happens. The game is a conversation: I say something, then you reply, maybe someone else chimes in. We talk about what's happening to the characters we imagine and the world around them. We also talk about the rules, which help us decide what happens next if the next step is in doubt. The rules differ from game to game: some use dice to shape the story, others use cards or something else. It's always a conversation, though.
