An old old topic, but I thought I would refresh it as I am looking to expand my game with some more flair and style. Anyone out there use props, sounds, etc for their games? If so, care to share your exploits? I am looking at using minis more, provide in-game documents in 'Top Secret' style envelopes, use a soundboard, etc.
I am honestly looking for ideas and inspiration, but am also interested to see what the community does as well. I like some of the crazy shit people here have come up with in the past. It all started with me trying to find those little breakable 'biscuits' you always see them cracking open in movies to get the nuclear missile launch codes. I got so obsessed over finding those, that everything I found in my search turned into a 'hey, I can do this and that and the other'. Now I have all these ideas for adding flavor to the game. Of course, I have still not found the launch code biscuits... |
