This game is one of the first solo games I've ever played, and has had an enormous impact on me as both a lover of journaling games and as a game designer. I have lived the lives of maybe 10 or so Sentinels now, and each one has been such a unique and heartbreaking experience, in a good way. Meghan adds just the right balance of gamification and journaling prompts to make this feel like a real adventure you are on.
well deserved 5/5! I got this in a bundle to support fight for rights for usamericans.
I enjoyed playing this! I think it was about 3 or 4 hours for me and I pulled about 7 cards including the joker, so that’d influence it too. (:
I decided to write in third person because I was struggling with both first and second person with the Guardian character I’d made, but it’s definitely another thing I’d love to try on the next playthrough of it I’ll do!
I really enjoyed that the prompts were juuust constrained enough to get the imagination going, but not so constrained it felt railroaded into a particular storyline
Very fun :D and I had a good time playing it, especially with just getting back into writing from years of hiatus.
