hello! We had our first session tonight and it was fan-freaking-tastic. Just a quick rules question. Does Act 1 (and later acts) end once all the omen tokens have been moved into the island pool, or when there is also no tokens on the island as well? Just wasn't sure if we cut ourselves short or not.

also can i just say, terrified ill never be able to go back to gm play after this (coming from a forver gm!). Absolutely obsessed with the belonging outside belonging system at the moment…

I’m thrilled to hear it - BOB is such a good time when the table is clicking.

As to the Acts, the intent is that they end when all the omen tokens have moved into the Island pool, yes. That said, for a bloodier Act 3 with the characters more exposed to violence, you could make the ending trigger on no tokens left in play. I think it’d also work!

fantastic, thanks very much! Will report back how it ends up 🤩

just finished our final session. Holy toledo this has become an all time best experience for me. We were all surprised so many times with how the story evolved, all of which felt incredibly tense, immersive and dynamic. Would highly recommend everyone to make the time to play this game. I’m sure the Island will haunt my TTRPG memories for many years to come.
