Anyone Can Dream Too Big

Welcome to Anything Could Happen—the real play experience where we put players against problems with no easy answers, incomplete information, and a ticking clock. I'm Oscar, your host, and it's my job to set things up and then go behind the scenes to pass messages to the players to keep knocking things off track. In this scenario we join the senior researchers at a leading academic institution. Several years ago, they created a controlled simulation. A closed system. Self-evolving. Designed to study emergent complexity. It exceeded expectations. It is still running. Inside, something remarkable has developed; a fully realized culture of apparently sapient digital beings. However, on the campus the costs and infrastructure have struggled to keep up. The team have predicted that the risk of a cascading power instability is inevitable unless you can upgrade the facility. But there is no budget - in fact - you have been told to make cuts. Worse If this instability spikes, the simulation will collapse. The players have been called into an emergency session and it seems that there is only minutes to decide what to do. And of course, Anything Could Happen...

Anyone Can Wake the Sleepers

The senior crew of the UFR Exploration Vessel DSV Horizon's Edge is operating in the uncharted outer regions beyond known trade lanes. During routine scans, they detect a massive artificial structure drifting toward an exoplanet. The scans confirm the impossible: it's a Generation ship, launched from Earth centuries before Harmonic Drives were invented. A relic from the earliest days of humanities reach into the stars. In twenty minutes it will enter the exoplanet's atmosphere where gravity will tear it apart. Twenty minutes to save the sleeping passengers. No second chances. And of course, anything could happen...
