This 2023 Game Narrative Summit session explores unique and innovative mechanics in the tabletop roleplaying game world, and provides jumping-off points for designers to implement and experiment with them in their own games. Evan Hill, Senior Area Designer at Obsidian, introduces attendees to the wide and strange world of tabletop RPGs, and discusses all the obvious and secret ways the genre has influenced the goals and designs of digital games (for example: how computer roleplaying games work to capture the experience of having a Game Master). Evan also outlines the experimental nature of the talk, looking for new innovations and adaptations that can be transported to digital game design.
