A winner.

I love this game. I love the stories it helped me tell. The mechanics are so satisfying.

The way you play in through the seven cards and then play out through the same cards is (chef's kiss). The symmetry! The lair as card house! Just inspired.

This game abstracts Beowulf so elegantly into something more expansive yet rooted in the core ideas of the monstrous, the heroic, the natural world, and the human will.

Let me know if you'd like more notes / play reports! And let me know the best way to get you your cup of coffee.

Excited for this! Do you want play reports or would you prefer not, haha.

Absolutely! Especially play reports about chaos arising from play with a physical deck, if you go that route.
