DayTrippers Core Rules - RPGKnights ReviewMark Knights of RPGKnights.com and Games-OnBoard.com has written a review of the DayTrippers Core Rules book, which can be found in his online store. After a little personal conversation in which I asked him for his opinions on the game's reputation for being "intellectual", he was kind enough to write his thoughts down and post them on his blog. Here's an excerpt: |

Surreal Games, Beyond WordsOver at A Kingdom Is, Abstract Machine has written a poetic and evocative freeform essay on the influence of Nørwegian Style, and the unique feel of roleplaying games that involve a surrealistic dimension. The games he discusses in this context are: The Society of Dreamers by Matthijs Holter, Itras By by Ole Peder Giæver and Martin Bull Gudmundsen, and DayTrippers. |

DayTrippers Media KitDear Roleplayers, GameMasters & Reviewers! • About the Game: An Overview |

Mini-Review & Dream CharactersOver at A Kingdom Is..., Abstract Machine has written a short non-review of DayTrippers, and created three highly atypical characters for your perusal. This is a great test of the flexibility of the DayTrippers Character Building rules, and I have to say, I'd run any of these characters! It's possible to imagine a DayTrippers session (or a whole campaign!) for each of them... |

Online Mission Generation SystemWhile working on the DayTrippers GameMasters Guide, I put together an online version of the mission generation system to test the generators in combination. Now I'm sharing it with you. This script (click link below) generates a random Mission, and if required by that Mission, it also generates a random Star, a Planet, a Location and a Lifeform. Infinite worlds await your exploration! |

GameMasters Guide - Unboxing & OverviewIt's Here! The print proof of the DayTrippers GameMasters Guide has finally arrived. I'm pleased to announce that it's free of errors, and has been cleared for sale! In this video I unbox the GMG, and describe some of what you can expect to find within its 120 pages. |
Written by Tod Foley (creator of CyberSpace, Ghosts in the Machine, and Watch the World Die) the DayTrippers Gamemasters Guide blends modern and traditional gamemastering techniques with the random input of oracular systems and the spontaneously-generative approach of surrealist art. Each adventure is designed to last a single session and return the PCs back to Earth, with the pacing of a short story or television episode.
Inspired by the surrealistic science fiction of Moebius, Moorcock, Rucker, Weinbaum, Heinlein, Vance, and other masters of weirdness, the DayTrippers system can be used for either "GM-Lite" collaborative play or heavily-prepped campaigns.
