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

Honestly I may just start that thread if Muffin doesn't, I love the idea
"Leftover items still have value!"

I'm here. I can do it. I was busy doing tests.
EDIT: And it's up. Sorry for the wait.

Come play Character Uplift Game!
Getting better at learning (He/Him)
Some time ago, I was thinking whether or not people would would be interested in a "That's a HORRIBLE tagline!" thread where we come up with sucky and cheesy Taglines for various works.
Currently Reading: N/A
totally non-filler title
Since we're creating new guessing threads, should we round it up with Don Bluth thread? Or use the general guessing thread for that?
Meito Anizawa, Anime Tenchou
I feel works by a specific person, even a well-known one, would be a bit too narrow for one thread, seeing how the other threads are about companies and everything they own/make
Though speaking of specific guessing threads, I'm somewhat considering making a Nintendo character guessing thread (including characters from non-game media based on their franchises) but wondering if that would feel like it's flooding forum games too much with specific guessing games

"Leftover items still have value!"
I keep forgetting to update this
I think it would be fine, though you would need to be specific
like would Kirby be considered a Nintendo character?
Meito Anizawa, Anime Tenchou
Yeah, Kirby and Pokemon series would go under Nintendo for that purpose, as would anything published (or officially licensed) by Nintendo even if not developed by them (however, console exclusives not developed or published by them would not count, as would anything previously published by Nintendo but currently owned/later published by another company, like Banjo-Kazooie - I'll try covering as many of those "weird edge cases" I can think of)

My "That's a HORRIBLE tagline!" thread has now been launched. Check it out here
The TV Tropes Crossover Anthology, my first game, has been launched.
We're basically doing something similar to The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, but with OCs and stories created by you!

Loserswithwifi
A forum game where players make up little potholed cast lists like you see in a lot of work page image captions (like โthe main cast, L-R: Alice, Bob, Charlie, Dennis, Ellenโ) and the next poster has to write a description of the work, or go into more detail about who the characters are, or something. I need to work out some more of the details, but does that sound fun?

I made a forum game called Tropecot!
You can make up either your own company or country, or use fictional ones as you help make a theme park similar to Epcot (before the I Ps came in).

do we have a "what loot would the above avatar/troper drop" game?
i can't believe nor even fathom that he visited his friend! the audacity!
CG for short
For the avatar version, I believe so, but IDK about the Troper version.

I know I've seen the former but can't remember what it was called... for the latter, not sure

I want to make a Guess the Anime character thread but I canโt find the link to make a new thread.

Just a random ๐
I made something like that a while ago, but forgot where was it now.
https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/conversations.php?topic=fgames
Go to that link and find a blue button at the bottom that says '+ Start a Thread'
The 10 Character List Game gives me an idea, do we have a 10 Locale List Game at all? You know like, places, areas, etc.
Not even stars last forever.

Are there any Homestuck -themed games, such as " What is the above avatar's mythological role" "What is the above avatar's Fetch Modus" or "Post the result of the above Alchemiter combo"?

Meow meow meow (I am just a lilโ hungry cat, I have nothing to do with a certain guy who hired an assassin)
I guess not. I'd really like to see a fetch modus themed game though, if there isn't already one I'll make it.
