[QUOTE="MNblockhead, post: 8112214, member: 6796661"] One option I'm thinking of is the new Labyrinth RPG. Easy to run and easy for me to control the play time. I'd probably fudge if to meet time while also bringing it to the final encounter with the Goblin King. The game designer's website makes digital versions of the character sheets and all the battlemaps available for free. Because of how the game plays, no fog of war, line of sight, or lighting needs to be set up. Also there is no need for DM-only maps to referenced. So I only need to have the maps all ready to display and drop tokens on. The main prep effort is to have all the maps in the VTT and ready to be easily loaded. Maybe I would need to make custom character sheets, but I would probably just provide PDF files ahead of time for parents to print out. I use Foundry VTT so nothing needs to be installed, but for kids who only have access to iPads, I can just share the Foundry screen on Zoom. Rarely do you need to actually drop and move tokens. The maps are more of a graphic aid. I might actually use the early access version of Role for this. Or I can just use zoom/Google Hangouts and open the PDFs of the battlemaps. If I did this, I would also create a party gift bag with prep-printed character sheets, some cool-looking 6-sided dice, snacks, and deliver them to the other kids homes the day before. [/QUOTE]
