Hello Playgrounders - I remember reading something somewhere sometime in the last year that went over 'rules' to play an RPG that made a world.

You got points each round and could then spend them to decide what races existed, what geographical locations etc etc.

I cannot find it any more - does anyone know where this can be found?

This sounds vaguely like Aria by Last Unicorn Games.

However, I can't be sure because I had great difficulty getting into Aria. It was trying to be far more high-concept than it really needed to be.

Burning Empires has that. But I doubt it's what you're looking for. If it was you'd have probably asked about "The RPG where you're at war with an alien race of worms and it's totally us versus GM all the way".

I dont think this was an RPG - more of a round table discussion to create a world.

So you get points and it takes 10 points to create a race, 2 to place a city, 3 to start a government, 30 to create a deity etc.

Sounds like Dawn of Worlds (http://www.clanwebsite.org/games/games.html) to me.

Are you sure it was an actual non-homebrew system? World-building/god/nation games are pretty popular on these forums, but people usually make up their own rules.

Dude Dawn of Worlds was fun, I have not played that since I moved to the states.
I agree thats probably right but I'm fuzzy

Now I want to play a game any one up to that on the forums?

That's it!

However, the link doesnt work for me - is it down?

Does anybody have the PDF that they could send through to me? I am happy to host it if it needs to have a place to live on the net.

It must be the work router or something - the page loads fine on my iPhone but not on my super hi spec PC!

Thanks for the help everyone - if we get famous from the world we build - we will mention you in the credits!

Thanks and have fun!
Also avoid getting into a full blown war if someone kills those dwarves you make
