Library and nominationsActive gamesUndead HuntUm... well, the gods abandoned the world because humans were too uppity and stuff, so now there's zombies and demons and evil spirits and stuff. But there's also wandering Undead Hunters (well, they also kill the demons and evil spirits and stuff, but zombies are the most common), and we're here to kick ass and save people.
Also, one guy's destined to be a dragon and another happens to be the ex-king of hell (though that was a couple millennia ago).
Overall, the game is structured well, but progression is very freeform, allowing for a lot of character customization.
4 VotesFinished/abandoned/inactive GamesThe Aetherworld PrisonA place where people are imprisoned in a dome for various crimes,some of them "annihilating" a city (one by cleaning them from humans), destroyed a fortress and stole a laser cannon, destroying useless factories, summoning monstrosities, gobbled an city's worth of humans, being mistaken for a criminal and being a evil overlord. The prison itself is destroyed by a Bronze Colossus, by firing it's laser cannon with tremendous force to the jail dome, collapsing it apart. The GM is building the second part, trough it is not clear when it is done.
0 votesThe Art of Minimalism VIIA continuation of the Art of Minimalism series. Art of Minimalism VII follows players in a a field doing various things. Magic has been (mostly) banned in an attempt to improve the longevity of this installment. Success has been limited; the large structures once adorning the spawn areas have been leveled. The afterlife exists and can be dance battled.
5 votesAscend Sky TowerCutting through the clouds, stands a thin, improbably high tower. It seems infinite, and it is said that at its top, the key to ultimate power lays waiting for an owner to claim it. The adventurers who seek the knowledge and power hidden within its depths range from naive to devious and smart to...not so bright. Follow the motley group as they climb each floor, winning over adversities.

The Arcanum Octet games
I,
IIThe premise of all these games is that the players are mages of some description, acquiring experience points in and leveling up various schools of magic. Being an RTD, it also features somewhat freeform and certainly unpredictable magic within that framework, leading to mass quantities of FUN!

1 voteCrossing the Bright VoidA game where the players are Space Pirates who have gained ships, and set out into the stars for fame, money, and other reasons that are shrouded in mystery. With the galaxy inhabited by a cruel slave federation, enslaved races, minor houses, dwindling galactic nations, and a mankind on the brink of extinction the players must struggle to survive. In their adventures they'll encounter lost people, bands of marauders, a race of deadly biological weapons, and foes far more dangerous then they ever thought.
3 votesCrossing the Bright Void 2 - A Space Pirate RTDA game following the journey of six wanna-be space pirates as they fight to travel to the stars.

2 votesFor Science!A mad scientist RTD. The players are fledgling mad scientists who bend the laws of physics to their will and destroy enough public property to bankrupt several small nations.
4 votesThe Forgotten Art: An Urban and Magical RTDArguably a slow starter, HB’s lovingly crafted and light-hearted tale of the sudden eruption of magic into everyday life is a good read and good fun. The players face the bewildering reality of magic in a mundane world and get up to various unexpected adventures whilst at times not knowing quite what to do. Has fulfilled many of my most ardent potato worship fantasies.
0 votes Fortress of BloodA dungeon-crawler RTD heavy on role-playing. Notable, because it shows that RTDs can have heavy roleplaying and still be smoothly run.

[sic] Long And Hard Story to expain it think better to someone else to sum up but It start place of the Island of Imperium,With our Ninja Assassin Aristocrat Jaiver Freeman and Quarter-Demon Demon hunter Sir.Scapheap the first in Odd Sci-fi and Fantasy universe with magic and technology. It more really Semi-RTD than full-RTD because it has magic system and level up system(all of it was make in fly) but as you Semi-RTD be on here(disqualified because it is no longer an RTD. Preserved for posterity)
(Alternatively)
RTD in which everyone starts out in front of their computer, with the choice to leave, or open 'Theworld.txt'; which transports you to the interactive world.
Currently, there are several continents; one of which is owned by the God-King Javier, and another being invaded. The everchanging world allows for almost anything to happen.

1 voteRoll to DUELA technically two player game centering around the epically drawn battle between Robocorn's champion, the Blademaid, and PlutoniumApe's Hairy-Eyeball-with-a-Unibrow! With large amounts of audience participation and sidestories ranging from bets placed upon the winner (consequently making our pink slug announcer and sponsor a very rich invertebrate), to a certain Wrym swallowing the contestants into his gullet! Meanwhile wacky freeform hijinks occur up in the stands as the audience members mess with eachother. Currently alive, but with a slowish update schedule because of the drawing involved and the joint GMs.

1 vote<Syndicate>Summary: The first Contemporary English Gangster RTD. In this game, a group is formed out of disenfranchised hoodlums, graduate students, ex-professionals and disgraced statesmen; the unifying factor being their quest to rebuild their lives, and perhaps go farther than they'd ever dreamed. Join them in the English city of Licheville, as they build and manage their empire and army, while simultaneously going to war with other gangs ranging from hordes of Irish Youth, to American hustlers to Mafia knock-offs, and of course the English police and government. Will they take over Licheville or be buried and forgotten as another failed street gang? Well, depends on which way the gun barrel is pointing in the end.
