Oh my gosh, I came up with this whole plot of love, betrayal, and theft. It was great. I had so much fun. And I escaped!!
I know there's not much room on the page, but having no prompts for the intro scene where the tailor arrives at court was a bit of a struggle. It wasn't a huge issue though--my character slipped past some performers and came in as a travelling tailor/merchant.
I like to sew, so having a game themed around embroidery was immensely satisfying.
I would like to report that I got a shy, nervous friend to try playing this roleplaying game with me and she really liked it! This game was a great way to push a newbie RPG gamer friend into trying something new. We played on a Google doc which worked quite well. I played the House. As a newbie to the horror genre myself, I found it a bit hard to think of appropriately spooky things to happen, but I found it a fun challenge. We played this game over several non-consecutive nights and it was always easy to pick up where we left off. So, yeah! This was fun.
an update! I have finally sat down to play the full game--the zine version. wow. this game really dug deep. I really felt creative flow while playing. I enjoyed the four different game mechanics/mini-games (not sure what to call them). I went outside my comfort zone and actually sat down to make the collages--and I am SO glad I did. I feel more excited about making art than I have in years! what's especially neat about this game is that the Source theme really changes the dynamic of the sacred site you create, so this game still maintains replay-ability. I've been recommending this game to friends of various faiths and been getting a lot of "!!!!" reactions :D but you can totally play this game no matter your religious background. it's just a really nice way to connection to a sacred vibe, however someone might interpret that in the game or in their own lives.
(also, thank you tori for the collage supplies. that really helped! I also picked up the extra Source booklet, which had lots of creative unique options that I never would've thought of.)
I bought the zine of this game a few weeks ago. I am completely charmed. So far, I have sent a magical paper airplane flying through space to send a message to a friend, seen a floating city, and found a mysterious dagger. I have yet to go beachcombing (in! space!) but I am really excited to try. I'm enjoying the slow nature of the game too, because then it means I can play multiple solo journaling games at a time :P (the fox curio game is waiting for me on my shelf too!)
anyway, this game is chill and delightful. I defs recommend it.
Oh my gosh, I was COMPLETELY charmed by this game. I got to romance a huge fuzzy spider! the only thing I wasn't sure about was if I was able to romance all the characters or only one. I didn't want a character to get jealous or mad at me. (I romanced two people anyway though because there are just so many amazing cuties.)
