Feelings?\u00a0 Inspired by the nerd-tastic song from The Doubleclicks, Lasers &amp; Feelings is a simple narrative RPG that captures the tongue-in-cheek feel of a crew of futuristic explorers battling strange occurrences in unexplored space, resolving personal conflicts between the crew, and dealing with sexy green aliens and amorphous energy entities. \u00a0And (like all of Harper&#8217;s personal work) is beautifully designed; both graphically and mechanically.<\/p>\n<p>Each player takes the role of a member of the Consortium who are crewing an interstellar scout ship, the <em>RAPTOR<\/em>.\u00a0 The ship\u2019s captain is currently recovering in a medical pod after being overcome by the strange psychic entity known as <em>Something Else<\/em>, and the crew must fend for themselves.<\/p>\n<p>Creating a character involves picking a style (anything will work, with examples like \u201cAlien\u201d, \u201cAndroid\u201d, \u201cIntrepid\u201d, or \u201cHot-Shot\u201d) and a role (again, anything will work, but examples include \u201cDoctor\u201d, \u201cPilot\u201d, or \u201cScientist\u201d).\u00a0 The combination of the two creates the crux of your character\u2019s personality and job: the \u201cSexy Doctor\u201d or the \u201cIntrepid Envoy\u201d or the \u201cAndroid Engineer\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Following this, each player picks their Number (2 to 5).\u00a0 The number represents how they tend to attack problems and resolve situations.\u00a0 A higher number means the character leans more on LASERS (technology; science; cold rationality; calm, precise action).\u00a0 A lower number means the character leans more on FEELINGS (intuition; diplomacy; seduction; wild, passionate action).\u00a0 To be clear \u2013 combat and fighting are not domain of LASERS.\u00a0 Nor is negotiation and speech-making the domain of FEELINGS.\u00a0 The two polarities of character leanings represent how a character is likely to deal with <em>any<\/em> problem that comes their way.\u00a0 Kirk would likely be a 2, rushing into passionate action and trusting his gut, whether fighting an alien entity or seducing a green-skinned lady.\u00a0 Spock would be a 5.\u00a0 Definitely a 5.\u00a0 Even technical work can run the gamut.\u00a0 Geordi is an engineer who uses intuition, while Data is one who uses careful precision.\u00a0 A character\u2019s Number is integral to their success at resolving actions (which we\u2019ll come to).<\/p>\n<p>Finally, each character chooses a quick few-word Goal (like \u201cMeet sexy aliens\u201d, \u201cShoot bad guys\u201d, or \u201cSolve weird space mysteries\u201d) to drive them, and makes up a \u201ccool space adventure name\u201d.\u00a0 Players start with identical equipment, which include a Consortium uniform, a phase pistol, and a \u201csuper-sweet space-phone-camera-communicator-scanner thing (with universal translator)\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>In the likely less than half a minute it has taken each player to jot down these pertinent details of their heroes, the GM will likely have created an adventure with a few hooks, possibly using the quick adventure seed generator that is included in the game.\u00a0 Players can also quickly create their ship, the \u201cRAPTOR\u201d, by adding a couple of strengths the ship has (such as \u201cNimble\u201d or \u201cWell Armed\u201d) and one problem it has (such as \u201cFuel Hog\u201d or \u00a0\u201cOnly One Medical Pod\u201d \u2013 which sucks, since the captain is in it\u2026)<\/p>\n<p>Then, it\u2019s time for daring space adventure!\u00a0 Doing things in Lasers &amp; Feelings is pretty simple.\u00a0 All you needs is a few d6s.\u00a0 When a player wants to accomplish something risky, he and GM decide what the action and successful outcome will be, and how the player is going to tackle the problem: with LASERS or with FEELINGS.\u00a0 Once ready, the player grabs a 1d6.\u00a0 If they\u2019re prepared, they grab another +1d6.\u00a0 And if they\u2019re somehow an expert on the problem (this is where style and role come into play), then they grab <em>another<\/em> +1d6.\u00a0 Then they roll, and compare each die result to their Number.<\/p>\n<p>If it\u2019s a LASERS roll, each result under your Number is a success.\u00a0 If it\u2019s a FEELINGS roll, each result over your Number is a success.\u00a0 The number of successes you generate determines how well you succeed (with complication or without).\u00a0 There\u2019s also another rather cute rule.\u00a0 If one of your dice rolls your number <em>exactly<\/em>, then you get \u201cLaser Feelings\u201d.\u00a0 You get to ask the GM a question, and they will give you an honest answer.\u00a0 Then you may choose to reroll.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s it.\u00a0 That\u2019s honestly it.<\/p>\n<p>And it is the most fun I\u2019ve had playing in a pick-up game in years.\u00a0 No minis, no maps, no hit points, no glossary of conditions and terminology.\u00a0 Just raw narrative roleplaying where the power is put into the players\u2019 hands to deal with insane situations put forth by the GM.\u00a0 And the game also provides excellent GM advice in a slap-yourself-simple paragraph or two of how to run this game <em>well<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>This is not a Star Trek RPG.\u00a0 But it\u2019s the best Star Trek RPG I\u2019ve ever played in.\u00a0 The fast, creative action, the player-controlled narrative, and the elegantly simple \u201cNumber\u201d concept represent the personality diffusion and fun that embodies the genre, and can handle most any situation. \u00a0Honestly, the system is simple enough (some might say, ironically, <em>robust enough<\/em>) to handle alternate settings or virtually any campaign concept where the players and GM are looking for something quick, versatile, and highly narrative. \u00a0If you haven\u2019t already downloaded Lasers &amp; Feelings (again, it\u2019s FREE), then please do.\u00a0 Take a read at a brilliantly designed master-course in simple RPG creation and sacrificing the complex for simple fun.\u00a0 Then get it on the table.\u00a0 NOW.\u00a0 You\u2019ll be glad you did.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.onesevendesign.com\/laserfeelings\/\">Lasers &amp;
