SoRoPlay GamTools Zine: Top-Down Worldbuilding for RPG Gamemasters

This issue is entirely focused on worldbuilding for the future adventure, the important world details for your fictional world, whether scifi, fantasy, historical, or whatever genre. This book focuses on worldbuilding planets on down to civilizations—cities, towns, and villages. Why focus on top-down worldbuilding? The answer depends on the type of game that a player is playing. For character-driven open worlds that emerge as you play the adventures, then bottom-up worldbuilding may be for you. However, for those who have or want finely GM-driven detailed worlds where everything is already planned out, then top-down worldbuilding is for you. This is a guide book that is meant to aid a Gamemaster (GM) or solo game player in making creative content. It's meant to help give useful tips, make aware challenges, and inspirational ideas. Its generic enough for any genre.
