106 Spiders
A downloadable dumb spider activity
You are (together) a cluster of 106 spiders masquerading as a human person. Your goal, as Human Person, is to experience the world as humans do, and achieve your real human drive.
106 Spiders is a collaborative, GM-less TTRPG where you share control of a single entity, Human Person -- a mass of spiders who have decided to seek out the good life in human civilization. While blending in seamlessly with the rest of the normal people, you'll seek to fulfill your real human drive. A narrative, prompt-heavy game where you also roll a lot of d6s.
A hack of [a flagrant misreading of] ABOVE THE EARTH by Bryant Durrell. For 1-4 players, with or without a GM/facilitator.
This is a first draft of essentially a dumb joke that became a 1-pager, now a 10-pager, and probably is still not in its final form! While "finishing" it I realized several new directions I could take it in, including as a solo game -- something exciting because I have no experience in it!
So, if you grab this and especially if you play it, let me know what you thought and leave any feedback! It'll help motivate me to transform it into the best pile-of-spiders-acting-like-a-person game out there! (are there others? I guess let me know that too)

May I suggest that when you do the solo version, you title it "106 Spiders in a Trenchcoat"?
