Absurdium

This is a game about brainstorming and improvising comedy sketches. The goal is to learn to create ridiculous and delightful scenes, the kind you can see on College Humor, Dimension 20, Rick and Morty, or in your favorite sitcom.

Use this game to create self-contained sketches, or to learn how to add comedy to your fiction stories or TTRPG campaigns.

You can play this game alone or with your friends, in-person or via chat (play-by-post). 

Learn the step-by-step process for creating comedy scenes, use this process to brainstorm funny ideas and outline a sketch, and improvise a comedy scenes from scratch, with no preparation.
