I like it. My own little journey through Divine Mirrors ended in a story of just about a thousand words.
There were some things I thought were a bit confusing:
Overall its also basically impossible to get the opposite result after you got 2 points in either of the traits and since you chose which one starts with a point already it feels a bit superfluous. For a solo game I'd personally want the option for the story to change direction from the first to the last roll so I wonder if using d8 or d10 might not be better to lessen the impact of the points.
Thank you for your feedback, Owlsten! It's so useful to hear about the bonus point system and how it drives narrative. My initial reasoning for giving the player a free bonus point was to honour the direction they might want to play in, so to hear you preferred more freedom for change in the story is a great insight! If I end up making an expanded version of the game, I'll keep your feedback in mind. Thank you again!
Interesting concept. Hagrid from the Harry Potter series would love this game :)
Thank you!
