Reminds me of a shrunk-down version of Cobwebs?
that’s the intent! This was created for games jam, to combine cobwebs with roll for shoes. You can easily use the setups from cobwebs in this game or the scratch off mystery cards in cobwebs.
This is completely rad. There feels like a lot of potential, evocative storytelling packed into such a small space.
thanks so much! It’s been a while since I’ve approached rules-lite and had to resist the urge to push this further mechanically but with the right group this one still makes great satisfying investigation tales
