Long Rest
A downloadable game
This is a game about a group of people sitting around a fire and working through their collective trauma and past hardships. Through doing this you collaboratively build a story of these people and their past.
Each player is a member of a group (adventuring party, sci-fi rebels, group of teenagers, whatever story you wish to tell) taking a break and dealing with trauma from some recent events. The game is ideally played around a fire with the group throwing their prompts into the flames (if a fire is not available, a bowl or basket is a perfect substitution). Players assign emotional weight to their portion of each tale, but must be careful to not be too blasé or overly dramatic. The only way for the group to succeed is to be honest and confront their feelings while helping share the load of others.
Included is a fill-able PDF to create your own prompts and a prefilled version perfect for fantasy adventurers.

This looks perfect for downtime in a DnD or PF group. Useful for when the DM needs time to figure out the next leg of the adventure and to get a feel on how characters (and maybe even players) feel about different things that happened.
I really love how simple this is, and the idea of physically tearing the paper is lovely
Thanks! I'm really glad so many people have enjoyed it. 😁
