Microscope RPG

Microscope RPG is a groundbreaking story game that lets you and your group build an entire history. From its distant origins to its dramatic ending; one moment at a time. Instead of following individual characters on a linear adventure, Microscope invites players to zoom across centuries, explore pivotal events, and shape civilizations through collaborative world-building.

The game uses a flexible, no-prep structure where players create eras, events, and scenes, jumping forward and backward in time as they uncover the story of an entire world. You can explore the rise and fall of empires, ancient prophecies, technological revolutions, cosmic disasters, or any setting your imagination sparks.

Because Microscope is GM-less, every player has equal control over the timeline, contributing new ideas while respecting established facts. It’s perfect for campaign planning, lore creation, writing inspiration, or simply enjoying a night of pure collaborative creativity.

If you love deep world-building, big storytelling ideas, and limitless creative freedom, Microscope is an essential addition to your TTRPG shelf.
