Hello Allison I really like your work, Gentleman Bandit has been a big influence for my. Sadly, being an argentinian it´s very expensive to buy ttrpg pdfs, our "pesos" are very low in comparisons to dolars and we have to pay 66% extra of taxes when buying items from the exterior due to protectionist laws. I´m currently unemployed by this pandemic and trying my best to focus on ttrpg and board game design, and I´d love to have access to at least 1 community copy of this game to work in my design lab.
Moonblind is a game filled to the brim with incredible words.
I was constantly taken aback by how evocative the text was, from the character traits to the multiple sections for tips on how to set the tone, interpreting your draw/divination, and everything in between. Whether it was game text or flavor driven prose, just great writing all around!
Some stuff I really liked:
The divination layout and set up is very fascinating!
I loved how encouraging and approachable it is to those who may not be comfortable with writing poetry or even just in general with approaching this game!
The tips for writing are incredible, I love them!
I will definitely be using the tips for writing your poem in the future! I think it helps so much how much the game tells you it’s ok to rip from it, especially because the divinations themselves are beautiful 1 line poems that can help a player craft their own for the scene it is based on!
This game is worth the $10 I paid for it! I can’t wait to try it out!
