ysabetwordsmithList of tabletop RPG with unusual premises
Most of these are darker than I'd want to play, but the premises are interesting. Among my favorites with unusual premises:
The Details of Our Escape -- Played with a standard 28-tile set of dominos instead of dice, players control a caravan of over 2000 people in search of a new home.
The Far Roofs -- a game of talking rats, and monstrous gods, and you.
Underisles -- a roleplaying game based on sign language, actually the third in a set.
World Tree: A Roleplaying Game of Species and Civilization -- set on, yes, an enormous tree with eight prime species; one of the rare games with no human characters.
