User:Craw-daddy/Sandbox/Best Friends (role-playing game)

Best Friends is a role-playing game (RPG) designed by Gregor Hutton and published by Box Ninja. The full title of the game is Best Friends: A Role-Playing Game About Girlfriends And All Their Petty Hatreds.

Best Friends was created during a design competition, run by Ron Edwards (creator of the Sorcerer RPG), to create a role-playing game in 24 hours. In this competition the participants had to choose (at least) two words from a list of four (suburb, hatred, girlfriend, and rats) on which to base a game. Best Friends didn't win the competition, but the author developed the game further for publication. The design competition took place in 2005, and the first printed version of the further developed Best Friends RPG was published in 2006.

Gameplay
