Pocket Task Force - PTF - is an RPG I made with two friends around 2001-2005. We played it many times, with ourselves and with friends. We've also exhibited it at GothCon in Gothenburg for a couple of years, where around 50 people got to try it. Almost everyone loved it, which of course made us really happy.
The unique (perhaps not so much these days) part about it is that it is an RPG where all the players act as the GM while also playing a character.
I recommend these missions especially:
- Professor's Wife
- Boat Document Recovery
- Boat Prototype
Please let me know if you're interested in trying it, or if you have any questions!

Bless!
I was just looking through my digital archives for the old copy of Pocket Task Force that you gave me at GothCon in the foreverago. Thought I might as well ask google if they've seen the game uploaded somewhere and voila - you've provided an itch for my scratch!
Not sure if it's of any interrest to you, but I did find in my own archives PTF v9, v10, v14, a Default Briefing and a copy of Boat Document Recovery.
Just wanted to leave a comment and let you know that the experience of playing Pocket Task Force has lived rent-free in my mind for near two decades now. Thanks for uploading it and making it available like this.
Oh wow, sorry I totally missed replying to this. This makes me extremely happy to hear :) I think there's no better compliment for a game designer.
FYI - I made a fantasy version of PTF for the 200 word RPG contest: https://200wordrpg.github.io/2018/rpg/2018/05/25/PocketTaskForceFantasyMini.html
Please let me know if you decide to play PTF again and how it goes! I'm almost scared to try it myself - maybe I can't recapture the magic now!
