Well, time to kill everyone who wants to preserve DnD or Magic.
The Simpleton has spoken.
Magic the Gathering
Warhammer 40k
Dungeons and Dragon 5th edition
Gloomhaven

Archeologists will look at my doomsday horde and immediately understand why the great burn happened
Legit please don't save Magic.

Now that's a blast from the past.
I've had the core book since it's publication and I've been planning to someday run a game. It's been like 30 years or something and that day hasn't et come. I felt it's kinda unique from the usual wod slop.

Ho lads! I like not these druids and their strange ways! The last character you played in a RPG or other tabletop game must infiltrate the bunker where all the world elites are gathered and put paid to the great burn before it happens! Does he triumph?
Jacob the potato farmer is allergic to bullets so yes
*no
frick
Apparently Jacob the potato farmer is also illiterate. Good job saving the world.
>alcoholic Ithorian starship mechanic with a deathstick addiction and bad knees.
If he still has his satchel charges and thermal detonators then we may stand a chance.
My current character in Fantasy Craft sucks at fighting anyone who would be described as a "special character" due to being built more to fit his personal development rather than to be good at fighting, he'd be able to infiltrate no problem because that is the one thing he is actually good at, but then would be stuck there for hours poking at people with a rapier doing small amounts of damage. But he's pretty damn hard to hit at least so maybe he could win.

The real goal is obviously to preserve as many styles of game as possible, so that future generations can iterate and improve on them. That way game development won't be lost.
It's just FATAL but translated into 30 different languages. I want future archaeologists to think we're moronic, as a joke

There will be enough of 40k and D&D to exist as memories, but no true assumptions as to their true nature. As if a mystery within the tides of history.
And enough of the true classics to stay in human memory.

If we're talking about a Post Apocalyptic situation, there won't be any plastic development following The Great Burn, so we should rely on RPGs that use the most plentiful die; d6s. I've made my choice, but Wushu, Fate (sort of) and Feng Shui would also be good options.

30 decks of Uno
Is it too late to save hanabi?
I could literally just play MTG(casual, with proxies) all day every day forever. So I pick that and don't bother with the other 29 slots.
a chess set, 6 d6, a standard playing card deck, a go set, a set of dominoes, a backgammon set, a cribbage board with pegs, one of those triangle deals with the colored golf tees you get for the kids whenever you go to Cracker Barrel, and hungry hungry hippos.
Everyone who saves chess is a pretentious shitposter. It's a solved game with no cultural value outside of being a referent to signal someone else is pretentious and backward for playing it.
>600 years of written history

>Solved game
What meaning does this have? I don't like chess myself, but do you have a flowchart handy to tell you every move? Have you memorized every possible outcome? Of fricking course not, so what does it matter.
Chess isn't solved, and likely won't be until some massive computational advances are made. Even checkers is only weakly solved and it has like a gazillion times less positions.
whichever ones will allow me to culturally project my fetishes into the far future. My Magical Realm knows neither time nor borders.
30 is too many, here's a random list I'm pulling out of my ass
Catan (just to prevent future children from experiencing Monopoly)
Dune
Dune Imperium
Trains
Tash-Kalar
X-Wing
Puzzle Strike
Galaxy Trucker
Ra
Skull
Clockwork Wars (perhaps in this iteration of society it will achieve its appropriate level of notoriety)
I don't even know 30 traditional games
