A science fantasy roleplaying game set in the far distant future, where humanity lives amid the remnants of eight great civilizations that have risen and fallen. This new world is filled with remnants of all the former worlds: bits of nanotechnology, the dataweb threaded among still-orbiting satellites, bio-engineered creatures, and myriad strange and wondrous devices. These remnants have become known as the numenera.

A rules-lite RPG based on "Inception". Players portray highly illegal con men who steal information from unsuspecting people while they sleep. The Mechanic uses the diceless tension building of a Jenga tower. This tower represents the stability of The Dream. The Dream takes place in The Architects mind (one of the PCs), and he controls all of it. He can alter the weather, the physics, the landscape and the buildings. |
