  Apocryphal

  There honestly isn’t much I would draw on, here. The notion of a group of PCs escorting a bigger group of apes to safety in a post apocalyptic world sounds like it would work on paper, but playing all those apes doesn’t appeal much to me as a GM, so I'd pass on that. Would it be more interesting if the players played the apes? That’s probably even more unwieldy.

  Wilderness travel can be difficult to game, because it's mostly reactive ("situation X appears, can you handle it?") and there's often little player decision-making that goes into it (you either successfully find a good campsite or you don't).

  You could perhaps do some drama-based games about office politics among the researchers at the Institute.

  The revelation that women make choices about mates could be done with a game like Shock: , except that the "shock" isn't that shocking.

  So i agree, there's no a lot to draw on.

  I was considering having the players play the bonobos, actually. My players would love it! But then I have those players....
