HIMBO TREASURE HUNT
🕑 Added 2021-08-20 16:09:38 +0000 UTCHello!
Quick update: For those of you who get physical copies of the games, I've just sent off Uncanny Rally, Big Bang Superstars and Cluedon't off to Mixam. I should get the prints next week!
Sasha had two ideas for roleplaying games: something about ADD and something about Himbos. (And also: shimbos, thembos, etc.) I went for the easier option.
For the uninitiated: a Himbo is a muscular, good-hearted man who maybe isn't what most people would call "smart." It's derived from Bimbo, which is a broadly derogatory term from what I can tell, but it's much kinder; as such, the female version of Himbo is Herbo, or Shimbo, rather than Bimbo.
Language is delightful, isn't it?
Anyway; I wanted the xbos to be out of their depth, so the initial plot was for them to be involved in a murder mystery - but we couldn't work out what the tone should be, so we switched it out to the slightly dafter National Treasure/Goonies-style treasure hunt with mysterious clues. I'm quite proud of the fact that all actions MUST be aid another actions with the entire team helping out, too.
Anyway. Big daft game about big daft people. Hope you enjoy it!

Petition for a Bimbo version of this where all the fitness stuff is fashion stuff instead!
