Targeted Dream Incubator (2020)

Horizon scanning real tech for your game What is Five Minutes into the Future? (5MF) 5MF are a series of short guides scanning the horizon for cutting edge technologies being developed in the real-world right now. Each issue will present one piece of nu-tech and some ways that you can use it in your roleplaying games.
 Volume 1.2 features the Dream Incubator, a device that can influence people's dreams. Inside you'll find details of: how the technology works in real life, a mind-twisting heist setting, a darkened-mirror cyberpunk setting where every smart device uses the technology to advertise in your dreams, a techno-horror setting where the manipulated dreams are used to deliver a ritual that frees a dream-demon, and a post-apocalypse setting where linked dreams cause the collapse of the human shared psyche and the birth of a maelstrom. 5MF is largely system neutral, and presents ideas suitable for a variety of modern and near future genres, including: 
modern,
 heist, espionage, 
 technoir, 
 near future, 
 superhero, 
 cyberpunk, 
 modern horror, 
 hard sci-fi, and
 (post)-apocalyptic.
 Finally, I finish each guide with just a little bit of crunch so you can use the technology (with rules and related character options) in a handful of popular, different systems including; Fate, Powered by the Apocalypse, and D20 modern systems.
