Thank you Beth! I hope you get a lot of fun use out of it! :)

I LOVE this concept! Like an 'endangered species' or legendary valuable (almost of mythical status, perhaps, if it's truly the last coin ever made).
If I were playing this game, I would have to add in museums as a strong faction contender (I could see them vying all over the world to get it), billionaire collectors, religious zealots (who all claim currency began with them), etc. Everyone wants its power!
But it would end with a simple hole in the pocket, as so many coins do... ;)
Hi Charlie, just one quick question: the only other ranked game jam I was in, the participants voted on each other's games. Is this one where you vote on your favorite? I was looking for a way to rate everyone's entries but couldn't find anything, and didn't want to miss out if it was up to us.
Thanks,

Did you know there is a ninja-themed game jam happening now? https://itch.io/jam/solo-game-chef-2022
(Also, on a different note: I emailed you a little game I thought you might like/be able to expand on if you want.)
You guys are geniuses! My only tweak would be that sometimes a phrase from a sentence would make more sense to steal than the entire sentence. :) My phrase was "a qualified joint", part of a much longer sentence from information about a retirement annuity (no idea what it was even talking about, which makes it all the funnier).
What a fun idea! It sort of reminds me of my own book game concept: I had tried to create a Mad-Libs styled theme (open a book to find a name, another book to find a verb, a third book to find a preposition, etc.), but I had no idea what direction to take it ultimately. Your concept is much simpler and achievable! I am excited to play!
Oh, I already scoured the book once already to find the word that had most been bugging me - "tergiversation". I thought it was some kooky error in the ebook, but nope, it's a real word. I am well-read, but never encountered that before!
Now I will have to find that other word... I swear the author must have used it like 26 times. :P
