The Forum Game Recommendations and Ideas Thread

Go To

Sticky, please?

New here? Or a regular poster here who is searching for forum games that are actually good? Perhaps looking for new ones that show some promise but can't find any? Then this is the place to be.

The purpose of this thread is for troper forum gamers to recommend forum games to other posters that ask (like a sub-forum library of some sort), or to recommend your latest created forum game.

When posting recommendations, it is preferable that you link the name of the forum game to its thread, along with a description of what the forum game is about.

Forum game rules still apply here.


FORUM GAME RECS

Our Avatars Are Posting In A Forum Thread: What if your avatar was part of a forum thread? This is the result.

Our avatars have been genderflipped: Same as above, but applied to your avatars.

Corrupt-A-Wish: One person makes a wish, the other grants and corrupts it, then makes a wish etc.

1000 bad reasons to declare war: Self-explanatory.

Bad ideas for forum games v2: Thread topic ideas that are likely to get you banned or shunned.

1000 things we've learned from video games: Just started by me, a humorous look at things video games teach us.


Happy recommending and happy forum gaming!

Regards,
Motor-Runner

Our avatars are posting on a forum thread. Can get pretty interesting at times, but it's some good fun.

Dreaming and Awake is pretty fun, as are the other RPGs.

I've become a fan of the pick 12 characters seconds game. It's a bit more effort than most games here, but I have to say it's my favorite at the moment.

This is a forum game I made: Adult Versions of Kids' Shows (and vice-versa). In this forum game, you take a TV show or movie meant for kids (TV-Y to TV-Y7 or G to PG) and describe a (SFW) version meant for adults (TV-PG to TV-MA or PG-13 to R). Or you can do things the other way around and describe a kids' version of an adult TV show or movie.

[up] you don't need to post several times in a row for the same game, it hasn't even been a day

Anyway, I've found Cast the above troper's avatar gallery in works pretty interesting lately x3

If you're looking for something more involving than a typical forum game but don't want to commit into a full-fledged RP, then consider giving Enter the Arena as Your Avatar a shot. Don't be intimidated by the rules. Other players won't mind as long as you play fair and don't act like a dick.
