We return to talk with our trusted master Mattia Ceniti (@matt_aster) who brings us a brand new game system: Trailer. This was born with a simple perspective:
“… create a game simple enough to be able to play it on Saturday night, pizza and beer with friends who don’t play role-playing games…“.
Trailer is certainly a much more streamlined and easier project, given the concept itself. At present, it is almost ready to be released.
“The public response has been very proactive; there have been some very interesting points compared to what the rules are…“.
For those interested, Ceniti is aiming for a publication: “Let’s say that now my mission is to publish Trailer and make it playable by the end of the year“.
Even if in the future he wouldn’t mind making an adventure manual where he goes into more detail, for now he remains anchored to the present. For those who remember, in Lucca we took part in a master multi-table, but with another manual: Sacrifice.
“…I have to say that Sacrifice has worked very well so far ; I don’t think it’s definitively ready yet. I think it still requires a bit of stress testing…”
The theme of sacrifice is actually not the first thing the master thought of. The concept came from a desire:
“How can I bring Russian roulette into a role-playing game?… sometimes the fun thing… you start from a concept… and only then justify it on a narrative level”.
“Sacrifice is definitely not at the end of its sands”.
Matt is working on his Ravenant Club and on the mission he has set himself: “Bringing people from the screen to the table. Bringing people out of their shells and making them play… in recent years, there has been a lot of talk about role-playing games but very little playing. I would like to adjust this direction.”
We can only wish him the best and hope to see him again soon and have great news from him.
