Before the Tower Falls

Solovember Day 21 - Before the Tower Falls by Kienna Shaw

This game is about exploring a vast tower of mysteries and secrets before it crumbles into the ground. Will you be able to explore and get out or will you be there when it comes tumbling down?

This game uses a block tower to represent the tower and each turn you read one card, answer the prompt, and if you decide to keep exploring, pull a block from the tower. The suit will tell you what kind of item you found and the rank will be a short descriptor either where you found it or what kind of condition it's in.

You then choose 3 questions to answer about the items before you decide if you are going to keep exploring or head back home. The game can end at any time, or you can keep going until the tower falls.

I wrote about an explorer being called to the top of the tower and went for 20 rounds until it collapsed!
