I Ran Mars 244
I’m sure Rachel E.S. Walton will be pleased to hear her Mars 244: the Liberation of Sisyphus game went very well. Good table, 50/50 split of Montsegur 1244 veterans and noobs, all the sad stories.
It went surprisingly fast and smooth, even with six players. I only cracked the whip a little! I think with just a little refinement (notes in a few days, Rachel!), this is going to be a marquee freeform event. Super replayable; this one didn’t feel much like my first go at all, although I’m looking forward to trying it again so I can keep trying new characters.
Early start tomorrow, catch y’all later.

Definitely my favorite game of the con so far. I want more.
I really want to play it again. It was a great way to spend an evening.
I’m right here! Thanks so much for running this, Paul. I had a great time.
A fantastic game — more immediate and accessible than its inspiration, and a cast that rocked the super sads. So glad I camped the BBC site during signup saturday so I could grab a spot!
Ahhhh! What a delightful thing to wake up to!! So glad you all enjoyed it. <3 <3 <3
Mind if I share this, Paul?
Oh please do. 🙂 We all really loved the experience.
