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

Might make something like "Explain the above avatar" where people have to try and explain what they think the context of the avatar is from the avatar alone. Sound fun? Sound doable?

Just make sure the title is clearly separate from the "Attempt to explain the above avatar" game (which is at least SUPPOSED to be making up an answer rather than actually saying what it is)

Ah, yeah, that's probably too similar.

Day 4 be like
I was thinking of making something like "turn the above signature into a Noir monolouge"
What do you mean there's no Morphogenetic Field? then what happened to that guy I shot?

Is there a thread that's like "What would be the knockoff Halloween costume name of the above avatar"?

Not sure where to put this, but currently there are exactly 4444 threads in this forum.

I've created this thread where we discuss what media would be suitable to be presented in class: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=16464722600A38506600&page=1#2
So far, I'm the only troper that's posted there, does this spark anyone's interest?

"Can you see what I see?"
Does anyone think that it would be worth reviving Choose a TROPER the Above CHARACTER Will Meet? The most recent post predates me joining the site, but it seems like it has the potential to be funny.

I used to like that thread, but I kinda stopped posting there because I'm not very confident when it comes to roleplaying as characters that aren't my own. But I'll see if I can start posting there again.
A great Mascot Mook.

Just discovered this site that auto-generates art based on keywords. I think it could make a fun game, but I'm not sure if it should be a "guess the keyword" game, or a "give the next poster keywords and see what they generate" game.
❀ Mint, Nuts, and Waffle ❀
I think the latter would be more fun.

Yes.
No one's going to cry on my behalf even if I'm sad...

I'll make that, then!

oh hey it's that guy from the thing!
Would a brainstorming thingy for a Trope-tan webcomic I'm making be here or somewhere else?
He can, however, feel sad, like when his wife left him.
(ON INDEFINITE HIATUS)
Probably somewhere else

Crappy Image Pickin' has been hilarious so far. I'd love to see more people join.

Have an idea, want to pitch it before making a thread, it would be called the "Avatar TCG Set", and the game would be providing an Avatar (with a name) for the next troper to provide card-game stats for, like card rarity and any moves or effects it may have.

(she/her)
That sounds kinda fun. Would like to see where it goes.
Macron's notes
dork: silent assassin
Same here. I assume you would be able to pick whichever card game series you want? So a poster might stat up an avatar in the style of Magic: The Gathering, while the next does it like Pokémon, and so on.
Ah, nevermind. Just saw it's already created.

I would like to ask again if there is a thread similar to my "What would be the knockoff Halloween costume name of the above avatar" suggestion, because I was thinking of creating a game like that.

[[Willy's Chocolate Experience The Unknown]
Just made a game based on Dall E mini and combined with Mad Lib.
Is there anyone who knows Wii Party enough to be a game master for something like that?
