GURPS The Prisoner
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
GURPS The Prisoner is a supplement published by Steve Jackson Games in 1990 for the role-playing game GURPS that is based on the 1960s TV series The Prisoner.
GURPS The Prisoner is a rules supplement that uses the setting of "The Village" from the British TV series The Prisoner. Like the TV series, the player characters wake up in a village they are unable to leave, punished for infractions of multitudinous rules, and unable to find out where they are or why they are there.[1]
The book is divided into two sections. The setting is laid out in the first section, and includes a map of The Village, as well as village protocol such as dress and appropriate greetings. The second section provides hints to the gamemaster about how to develop suspense, how to answer players' questions, and how to pepper the adventure with weird encounters. The book also contains the introductory adventure scenario "Arrival".[2]
