Okay so this is really more of a thought experiment than an actual request. I’ve been feeling a bit under the weather the last few days and worked through all my bingeable shows and finally got into “YellowJackets”, which for the u initiated is about a team of high school soccer players who survive a plane crash on their way to Nationals, only to have all sorts of fucked up experiences in the 19 months they have to survive in the wilderness.

I think this is a cool as fuck concept and would love to play it out (with or without supernatural elements, but I think it would be more fun with them).  But I can’t for the life of me wrap my mind around how one would organize this. Would you need a core GM? A few Co-GMs? Weekly events that everyone would have to work through? Would there be a system that could help shape this?

Has anyone ever written or participated I. A game like this, or know if any that existed here on E? I’d love to see an example of this working.

Edit to add if this is in the wrong place I’m sorry but this felt right.
