The two main games we use are EWR (Extreme Warfare Revenge, which is what Vito and I use) and TEW (not actually sure what it stands for, which is what Fan uses for his GFW game). They're booking simulators. EWR was made in 2003 and comes loaded with all the wrestlers and staff from that time. There are tons of fan-made mods with modern rosters or pretty much any historical period you can think of, or any "alternate reality" as well.

TEW is a much more advanced game. Because it originally cost money (EWR Has always been free), the creator (Adam Ryland) couldn't include real names. So it comes preloaded with made-up names and promotions. There are, naturally, a bunch of fan-made mods to include the real thing.

EWR is really simple. You can knock out a show in 15 minutes. TEW has a lot more options, so if you really want to dive deep, you could take an hour. The game, though, only provides so much information. These stories that we post are mostly just us expanding on what we've booked in-game for our own amusement.
