I purchased a physical copy and have not received it yet, is there a way to contact you about it? I had an updated address, maybe it is just stuck in the post system.

Hello! I'm so sorry you haven't received your copy yet! I sent them out a few weeks back, potentially it might have gotten lost in the post, I'd be happy to send out another one for you! Do you mind emailing me your details again please and I will get it out to you as soon as possible! innocentgoblinttrpg@gmail.com

Thank you so much.

Just checking, did you get my mail or is it maybe stuck in Spam or something? 

Hi! I hadn't received it but I just double checked and it was in spam! Just replying now! 

I am very disappointed in the game. I was really excited to play because I love tea so much but rules are very unclear. They often are muddled in flowery words leaving to much up to interpretation.  There are a lot of charts with confussing directions, making it more like a glorified writing prompt then an actual game. I ended up having to rewrite the rules to make sense to be able to play. 

The art work is cute and it has a potential but the game lacks structure. It feels like this is the first game this person made and they have very little ttrpg system building experience. This could have really benefitted from being play tested more and have an editor. 

I'm curious.

  1. How do you find it compared with other journaling games?
  2. What were the things you appreciated about the game text?

1. Compared to other solo journaling games, it leaves too much to the imagination and doesn't give a good foundation for creating the world you are playing in. Plus, many of the rules were too vague and hard to follow or started okay, then fell apart when you put them into play.  It would have been nice to have a worksheet that outlined the play steps. I used Apothecary and Stardew Valley as bases for rewriting the system to make a little more sense.  I tried to use as many of the charts that were provided as possible. You are welcome to read through the rewrite here. It's not perfect, but it made the game more playable for me and my friend, who likes to play solo adventure games. 

2. I appreciated the story at the beginning; the poems were lovely, and the art was pretty. The way to create the goblin friends you meet was a well-written part of the game that played right. 

Thanks, I very much appreciate both your reply and your Welcome Grotto rewrite!
