“Roleplay Heavy” games place the focus on the story, the characters, and the world they live within, and tend to lean hard into the various roleplaying elements of the game. These games will frequently find the party talking with NPCs, exploring the personal elements of their backstories, or even having emotional moments around the camp fire.

“Theater of the Mind” uses little to no visuals for scene settings and combat. Instead, the narrative imagery comes from the Game Master’s descriptions and character action and movement comes from Players’ descriptions.

“Rule of Cool” emphasizes creative story beats over sticking to a system’s rules as written. Players have the ability to push the limits of the rules or even break core rule mechanics at times if the Game Master thinks it is interesting, fun, or cool enough.

Play By Post refers to a game in which players interact with the story through messages and text posts. These games are typically played asynchronously throughout the week, which gives players time to consider what they want to do next, and engage with the story at their own pace.

I'm an avid fan of Powered by the Apocalypse games (especially the ones by Magpie games), Grant Howitt one sheets, and silly one shot games of any kind. I grew up playing D&D 3.5 and still enjoy playing a classic halfling rogue from time to time. I firmly believe in the rule of cool, absolutely make characters for roleplay fun over combat benefits, and write backstories that are way more detailed than necessary.
