Summary
Often, we treat games like work. We buy shelves of thick books. We plan detailed adventures. We memorize rules. In Play Unsafe, Graham Walmsley explores what happens when you throw the serious stuff away: when you stop working, stop planning and start playing. This book explains how to make role-playing less like work and more like play; stop killing other players' ideas and build on them instead; and put stories at the heart of your game.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

A useful resource
As soon as I’d finished listening to it, I started it up and listened again. There is some good advice and resource in this book which helped me make the final push into running my games in a more improvised style… even if I still do prep (a little).

brief and a bit restricted
Got this book as I'm interested in learning more about games as a topic and the forms of gameplay.
its primary based on TTRPG (tabletop roleplay games) is an area I don't know much about although this book was to focus on a narrative aspect. It descent dive much into storytelling as a medium with games. Or how this could be applied to other modern game mediums which I hope would be inciteful.
it is a short book so perhaps I shouldn't have expected too much but it might be suitable if you enjoy the niche gameplay of TTRPG's and want to come up with ideas around it or improve the performance.
