Interest check. New game (if you like Digimon, check within)

Hello all. I've come across a fun game that released recently called Animon Story that I would like to run. Most likely for a oneshot as the initial intent, but depending how it goes, it may extend to a full story.

What kind of game is Animon Story you ask? Well, remember Digimon? In particular the original first season? Animon Story captures all of the elements of that show that you probably enjoyed enough that just my mention of it brings up waves of nostalgia.

You play as a kid character with an Animon partner that you as the player get to design. You go on journeys together and grow as partners, unlocking higher stages of evolution.

Mechanically it's a pretty tame system using d6 dice pools and success based results. Movement isn't really necessary to track tactically, so it should run fine in forum format.

Also keep in note, I'm new to it as well, so overall the oneshot is intended as a testing grounds to try it out.

Any takers?

40+ views and no replies. I guess this one is a bust then for interest. ^^;

Unless people are being shy about asking questions.

Sorry, too old for Digimon. Know nothing about it and I'm not really interested in playing a "kid".

I *do* enjoy playing a kid, but I never got into digimon, sorry. I really like the way you run games though. Good Luck!

Ah it's all good. I know Digimon isn't everyone's jam, but I did think there's be a few more interested than zero. xD

Oh well, maybe another time. Maybe I'll find something else that I can run. I'm also working on my own game I'll want to playtest some time. This seems like a great place for it.
