I played an interesting game on Saturday, called Android. The game is based in a futuristic world, with distinctly cyberpunk overtones. I felt we should be playing it while listening to the theme from Bladerunner. It involves a murder, and the players are supposed to be finding out who the killer is, but it is much more than that, with politics and corruption involved.
For a first play, it was a bit of a disaster. The events are supposed to take place over a two week period, with 6 days of each week (I suppose even Cyborgs get Sunday off) representing the 12 turns. The game is supposed to take 2-4 hours. I was expecting a bit longer, as we were all new to the game, and we were playing with the maximum 5 players. Even so, after 3 hours, we were only just playing the 4th day of our first week, so I suggested we finished at the end of that week, which we did, about an hour later.
