The Lexicon game is nearly ready for play, and even has a wiki now.
The game is one of collaborative world-building, where players write (in character) about a particular fictional incident, or place, or time. The setting for our game is steampunk fantasy - complete with gaslights and pointy hats - and the characters are all working for
an institute that'd really like to investigate the portals that the city seems to have, but is first being made to write a guidebook on the city itself.
Once the game gets started, the time commitment players will be looking at is two articles a week, of at least 150 words, for thirteen weeks, with the option to defer a week's entries to later if there absolutely isn't time.
The game is at a kind of unofficial turn zero at the moment, for players to join and create characters and such. There's more information on the wiki, and at
apathy_games, and if you have questions you're perfectly welcome to ask them.
So, if you're interested in playing, come and join us.
