Is there a printer friendly version of the landscape character sheet that appears in the endpapers of the new hardcover? I could print it from the PDF but the background will be a waste of grey ink!

I played this game in a small group (3 people) and we all really enjoyed it. As recommended in the text, we drew a map of the garden as our record of events. The interleaving of imagination and drawing was really nice, slowly building up the details of the garden. The repetition of prompts during different seasons of the year helped to create a sense of internal story and continuity rather than a series of isolated events.

We managed to create a story that was cosy and quiet and a little bit healing, just by throwing strange things into the pot. Highly recommended.

Okay I will ping the shop first to see if they have it. If not I will follow up with my email address here. They had more copies of Notorious and Outsiders on the shelves so it'll be important for them to know in future anyway!

Edit: Yep, got access from the shop. Thanks for your help!

Is there somewhere to download the player sheet that doesn't involve buying the PDF? I bought a hardcopy from my local game shop yesterday but the written text seems to assume you have full access to the digital files.

Excellent fun to play with my pre-schooler. She enjoyed drawing the raccoon with a moustache, the campsite where it all happened and the cake that was to be stolen. I can't remember how it ended (I think she re-rolled for a better outcome, but why not?) but the journey was excellent.

(My only wish is that there was a good way to convert between Letter size and A4 for pocketmod format! Otherwise my folding ends up wonky.)
