HOMAGE TO D. VINCENT BAKER
AND
APOCALYPSE WORLD
The rules of this game are partially based on
the “Powered by the Apocalypse” game engine,
presented in 2010 by D. Vincent Baker in his
revolutionary game
Apocalypse World.
Vincent
changed role-playing games forever by intro-
ducing a new way to play that emphasised a
flowing conversation and a great story. Many
great games that use this engine have since
been published. We thank Vincent for his contri-
bution to the world of role-playing games which
also allowed the creation of
City of Mist.
