An open-source tabletop exercise game system by The Long Game Project
InsightRPG
The rules for running your own exercises
A role-playing game system designed for one purpose: helping teams practise thinking under pressure.
Players create characters, respond to unfolding crises, and make decisions with incomplete information. The game is the vehicle. The insight comes from the discussion.
The system is built on the foundations of D&D and other TTRPGs, stripped down. If you've played D&D, you'll recognise the bones. If you haven't, you can learn the entire system in ten minutes. It scales from a quick lunchtime exercise to a full-day strategic simulation.
This same system underpins The Long Game Project's facilitated client exercises, including two conference games delivered for ALLFED.
