TTRPG designed to look like the brochure for a senior citizen retirement home

Green Oaks:

Green Oaks is a beautiful structure surrounded by nature, where those who have reached the winter of their lives can indulge in a variety of recreational activities, cultivate new friendships, and rely upon the expertise of nursing personnel of the highest order.

There are rumors that great treasures are hidden away in the basement of Green Oaks, but some believe the entire structure to be nothing less than an alien base for conducting experiments on Seniors.

Luckily for them, all of the establishment’s residents have a peculiar past, which may very well be the key to surviving what transpires within the walls of Green Oaks. 

Thanks to the innovative ArterioscleroSys system it has never been easier to play the role of a Senior. 

Various pics.

Larry David really did write a script for "Prognosis Negative" and here it is

NYT on the script:

It’s not clear when David wrote it, but this version is labeled a second draft and dated May 3, 1983 — years before he helped create “Seinfeld” and, later, “Curb Your Enthusiasm.”

...

a 24-year-old Redditor from Rochester, N.Y., had found the eBay listing through a Google search. It had been put up for sale by an account offering several unpublished scripts; it was not clear how the account obtains them, and its operator declined to comment.

The article includes a photo of David with Michael Richards in 1981.
