I made this game for the Public Domain Game Jam and was awarded Best Adaptation. My goal was to create a game that had strong plot points and existing relationships to inform and react off of, but to allow the players to have leeway in how they create and discover those relationships. There are mechanics designed in the game that allow for different experiences every time, as the players will discover information with different characters and deliver that information likewise. While it may not be open ended like some narrative games, the story that is told can take different forms based on the players themselves and what they bring. I hope you enjoy. Feedback is always welcome.
