[QUOTE="Jer, post: 7359961, member: 19857"] Dream Park would be the game about people playing a game that I can think of. I think you could also come up with a game where you play the role of sterotypical gamers playing a game. Like a Knights of the Dinner Table game where you're trying to figure out how the characters would play their PCs instead of how you would play them. (That would be weird, but possibly kind of fun in a weird way.) But Phantom of the Opera is more a play about people making a play. "Films about films" that I can think of tend to be films about people making films. So what about an RPG about making RPGs? The "Phantom of the Game Dev Studio" where you all play game designers trying to put together a new release of a game while simultaneously dealing with weirdness of some kind. (Now that I type that out I could swear that I've seen that done somewhere. Possibly in a con scenario? I'm thinking it was either a Call of Cthulhu or a Gumshoe scenario but I may be imagining it.)
