DayTrippers GameMasters Guide

ADD TO WISHLIST >
Selected Option:

The Daytrippers Gamemasters Guide is a toolkit for creating surreal adventures in weird worlds and other dimensions. With this expansion to the DayTrippers Core Rules, the GM takes the players into new and wildly divergent realities every session, blurring the line between subjective and objective reality.

The DayTrippers GameMasters Guide presents a radically new approach to designing and running unforgettably immersive adventures in inner and outer space. It's a valuable design aide for any GM, whether you run a home DayTrippers campaign, or use it as an adventure supplement for other game systems.

Designed 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 oracle tables and the 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. The result is a fast interpretive system with its own skittery mechanics, spitting out an endless variety of psychoactive science fiction narratives that will trip your players out. Psychic Content. Oracular Prep. Narrative Resolution. Vertical Control. High Bleed. You've played like this before, but you've never seen rules for it.

What people are saying...

"I love DayTrippers!"
- Ron Edwards, author of Sorcerer, Trollbabe, co-founder of The Forge

"Even though the book is written for the DayTrippers game, this is a book
I would recommend to any GM that wants to cultivate great ideas
and find useful suggestions on how to further develop their GM skills."
- Keith Mageau, RollingBoxcars.com

"Daytrippers isn’t a universe that you and your players will explore;
it’s a toolbox for the GM and the group to create and explore their own universes."
- David Schirduan, author of Mythic Mortals

"It is refreshing to see so much effort be put into taking a game’s theme,
explaining it and then pulling it into the design and description of the game
and GM’s guide generica. The dreamworlds in particular are ideal for experimenting
with surrealistic expression. It gives the game’s freedom a distinct and unique purpose."
- Jaye Foster, 6d6

"It's a game for good gamers. The rules aren't hard to figure out,
and even with all the crazy stuff you can stumble across,
there are plenty of generators to cover your ass..."
- David Guyll, author of A Sundered World

"I’d buy this just for the generators."
- Larry Hamilton, FollowMeAndDie.com

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
