Earth 2020 is a 1983 role-playing game published by Stephen Kyffin.
Earth 2020 is game set in the then-future of 2020. Technology has allowed everyone to live lives of leisure, but some people — the player characters — seek adventure. [1] Designer Stephen Kyffin designed the game as "an optimistic view of the future, with more technology and human understanding of ourselves and the planet we live on." [2]
The book is divided into four sections:
Stephen Kyffin of Newquay self-published Book 1 of the game as a 44-page booklet with a price of £2. [2] More volumes were promised, but ultimately no more books appeared.
Andy Blakeman, writing in Issue 11 of Imagine , felt that similarities could be drawn to Traveller , and there were also some errors in equipment pricing, but concluded, "Really, this game is hard to criticise [...] I feel that I can recommend this game system to many gamers, whatever style of play they prefer, as a good system for role-playing. Full marks!" [1]
