I’m poking around on the discussion boards of The Forge, an indie RPG site. I just found A Role-Playing Game of Clinical Depression. Ooof! Not something I’d want to play, though the mechanics are darkly clever.

Tabloid: The Gutter Press Roleplaying Game has a promising premise, but it’s just a rough idea.

Bullpen is a superhero game, where the players can make rolls based on their characters’ fan appeal to take control of the storyline.

I was hoping for more than vague ideas from the thread about The Xerox Missive, an RPG based on the works of Philip K Dick.

TSR released an Amazing Engine-based game called Tabloid. Bullpen sounds a lot like "Good Guys Finish Last," a superhero game in the early 1990s (published in Space Gamer/Fantasy Gamer). The depression RPG is a new one, though.
