This week!

I do it the same way as Scrape. Works for me!

The officer playbook will have a revised version of the move.

It hasn't worked in play the way we wanted. But feel free to keep using it if it's working for you. That's the beauty of custom moves. :)

Perception stuff is always tricky! DW includes one way by default, but honestly, custom moves are your friend here. Adam's is pretty good.

In my current World of Dungeons game, I use two methods.
1. Tell them what's obvious, including tell-tales of secrets if there are any.
2. When they take the initiative and investigate something, I ask them how they do it. Then roll+WIS (usually). On a 10+, I tell them everything they could reasonably know or intuit, based on who they are and what they're doing. Character class matters a lot; it's the lens through which information is passed. On a 7-9, they make some progress but it's a half measure. I tell them something true, but don't elaborate. If there's trouble, I can bring it (often, curious monsters, guards, time slipping away). On a miss, trouble manifests fully, and this avenue of investigation is a dead end for now. Nothing to see here, try another way.

"Deep brain scan is useless," is like a klaxon going off. I'd have a talk with them about whether they really want to play a Brainer or not. If not, no worries, pick a new playbook.

If they do want to, then okay, they're not very good at playing a Brainer yet. No biggie. They'll get better with practice.

MC, play Pellet like a real person who just got his lowest moment ripped out of his brain by a violation glove. Ask the Brainer how they want to manipulate and control Pellet with that info. That'll help.

These APs are so good, they really motivate me to make the game that will let other people attempt something like that, too.

It's a tall order. Most days I think we can do it. :)
