It focuses on a group of "common folk" travelers discovering new places and helping folks with their problems, all with a generally up-beat attitude. It's got a heavy manga/anime vibe to it, but it wouldn't be hard to kit bash that into Popeye or or similar.

I've played Scooby crew themed one-shots using Risus Monkey, and I think it wouldn't be too tough a stretch to adapt Fiasco for it. However, I have my own Scooby-esque project going (currently backburnered) using Call of Cthulhu as its base...my working title is "Scoobthulu."<br /><br />[Bubblegumshoe is the RPG for Nancy Drew/Hardy Boys type games]JBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03263662621289630246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8302487761596456689.post-478964089396065682019-05-17T14:24:18.618-04:002019-05-17T14:24:18.618-04:00There was a "Hanna-Barbera" flavored 3.5...There was a "Hanna-Barbera" flavored 3.5 mod called, uh, Hijinks? maybe?
