Final Lap is a zero prep GMless game where we collaborative tell the story of racers in a cartoony videogame like Mario Kart and Wreck-It-Ralph's Sugar Rush, trying to take on The Champion in the final race of the season! It is a Descended From The Queen game, using the prompt-based collaborative storytelling mechanics from For the Queen in different themes. In this case, it features themes of racing, rivalry, friendship, and self-sacrifice. No familiarity with any of these things is needed to play, but being comfortable improvising things on the spot based on various random prompts is key. This game is pretty much entirely roleplay. And while this game features a race, the goal of this game is not to win the race. It is likely that the Champion will win it, rather than any of us. There are no game mechanics to simulate the race. The game emulates the story of the race, as do many fictions featuring drivers.
This game will be great if you like Mario Kart, For The Queen, and collaborative prompt-based storytelling.
This system is especially great for new players.
The game runner is very familiar with this system.
