This is clever, and an interesting combo of adventure seed + whole new mechanic that still works for any system (or even as a stand-alone game)! I love the way the yes/no questions fit fear/will merely by saying yes or no (although I'd argue that, in some circumstances, saying you wouldn't change what happened could be considered a statement of will; but if you wouldn't change it, then maybe you shouldn't come back to life because doing so would undo the sacrifice!). And I LOVE the idea of creating a character, a funny death, and then explaining why they'd say yes or no to the questions rather than coming up with the answers and then explaining it. It's like solo improv!

Thank you very much, I’m glad to hear you enjoy it! You made such a great point about characters needing to stick to an immoral/no answer in order to keep a sacrifice/martyrdom/etc purpose or maybe they change their mind, their last selfish act to come back?! That adds such a dynamic to a game/journalistic improv story that didn’t even cross my mind when making it; thank you!

It's my pleasure! I love experiencing new, unique games and situations like this. It has so many different ways it can be used, which is saying a lot since it fits on a single card!
