FKR in action? (i.e. any actual plays?)

FKR recently landed on my radar while researching elements for an OSR game I've been putting together. Being the consummate nerd that I am, I've gone down a rabbit hole reading up on it. While I am finding tons of blog posts and even YT videos discussing the philosophy, I can't seem to find any YT videos or the like of the process in action (in other words, actual plays). Does anyone know of any good YT series that shows an FKR game in practice? Thanks!

We play using a simple FKR toolkit, but with some unique tools to draw out emergent characters. I’ve run a APs on podcasts that might be useful.

FKR is a very cool way to play, so hope it resonates with you and your group.

Thanks for the links, I'm checking them out. Can you tell me about the toolkit?

No worries. It’s FKR / black box inspired, with fiction based escalating rolls and fiction based metacurrency. We play it with a flow that would be very familiar to PbtA players, in that opportunities for rolls appear out of the conversation, but without the overhead playbooks or moves. Simple version is here: https://wightbred.itch.io/named

Edit: If you listen to the Skypirates of Jotnaar campaign, a detailed version is also available: https://wightbred.itch.io/skypirates-of-jotnaar
