Anything Could Happen
Welcome to the show where 'Anything Could Happen' - a real play experience set in the far future where players have to solve dilemmas that have no simple answer, incomplete information & before they run out of time! We set the players against no-win scenarios that they have to decide on a solution typically within 20 minutes. The games are set in a sci-fi context that allows us to safely explore issues and topics in a way where we are free to think 'What If?'
