I enjoyed this game much! I liked seeing the market take shape as I explored it with the descriptive prompts providing a strong sense of place and character whilst leaving space to storytell. I am trying picture mapping and annotating in the spaces as the cards are revealed. Works rather nicely! Thank you :-)
The start of the Carta system! Dreamy, fairytale-esque. I like how you choose among four different reasons for going into the glacier. I can see myself coming back, although I haven't replayed it yet.

I enjoyed this a great deal as both a game and a storytelling device. The mechanics are simple enough to pick up, and while I am not particularly fond of random chance, I can appreciate and understand its inclusion in the context of a roguelike simulation, especially with the kind of sisyphean thematics to it. All in all a very good time.
A poetic & magic little journaling game that makes you want to be a child again, with curiosity and open-wide eyes at the world around you.
