Done!

ooh, puffins! Is that washi tape or did you draw them?

I used this with my 5th and 6th grade gifted students in a poetry writing lesson. They loved it!

This is cute and hilarious!!

This looks really cool! Congrats on your first game.

This is such an elegant game. I love it.

I assigned this to my gifted 7th graders thinking this would be a fun exercise to practice writing “showing, not telling”. 

Most are getting into it but one kid wrote about using Google translate with his puppet. LOL. Cheeky. 

Aw yiss!

Thanks! I’m glad you like it. 

Thanks! Let me know how it goes. 

This looks so interesting. I love the format.

Oh, no worries. I must have missed the email about it.

Awesome! Let me know how it goes if you play it. 

Oh whoops! No it is not. Let me put a pdf up. Sorry about that and thanks for the catch.

Played this tonight. Very rewarding. I look forward to playing this again and hope to try out the LARP at some point.

Yay Glitch! I will treasure this. 

This wouldn't be inspired by current event, would it?  ;)

This is so cute!

Hi Ashley,

Sorry about not providing all the pieces. I designed this for traditional classrooms and they usually have all of these pieces in their math curriculum. I can create them and add them to the game. 

This is a really great way to use games in the classroom. I work with teachers and one of the biggest barriers with using games is the time to play one. I'll definitely be using your resources to scale other games for classroom use.

This is a really great write-up. I'm doing a panel discussion in a couple of weeks on mechanics and I want to start out with a discussion on what are mechanics and why they are used. I think it would be great to end the panel with your discussion points on not using mechanics. 

Great resource. Thank you!

This is so cool! I've read a bunch about them. It's a fascinating story.

This was so much fun to play. I like your take on the Carta system and how you turned it into a labyrinth. The mechanics intertwined with the lines for the spell was nicely done too. Your prompts are very spooky and this is a game that would really creep me out if I played it at night. Well done!

This is so good! I'm so excited that you not only completed your first game but entered a jam too. Keep it up!

"So please, don’t be going to your local meetinghouse and trying to win silence."

Love it! 

Yay for more Quaker games in this  jam!

This is wonderful! I hope to use this in a discovery class on archaeology that I am writing for gifted elementary students.

The packaging was so cute!! I can't wait to play.

What a fun twist on a spy game. I’ll have to try it!

Ah! I have a copy and keep waiting for a quiet moment to sit with a nice cup of tea and absorb each word. The Ink that Bleeds was so introspective, I don't want to skim through Inscapes. But this perfect moment will probably never exist and I should just force myself to plop down and read it one afternoon.

Reading issue 3 has me thinking about two possible ways of playing journaling games - as a version of yourself and as someone completely different. What attracts people to play in either style and what can you learn about yourself from each strategy? 

Now one could argue that we always play a version of ourselves even when we are trying not to. Is there any reason to try to play someone else if it just leads us back to ourselves?

Thanks! These were the most imaginary cards I could think of. LOL.

oh, I didn’t see it was a jam entry. Really cool concept. 

This is so cool! Is there somewhere we can find the complete set and the gameboard?

Wow, this is lovely.

This is genius and super helpful! I now realize why I have a bunch of game fragments languishing in my game journal. I'm going to try this exercise with them and see if it gets me out of the rut. 

Every time I see this game pop up in a list or elsewhere on the web it makes me happy. It's such a delightful, creative game and one of my favs from the 2024 One-Page jam.

Full disclosure, I adapted the flowchart mechanism from Tim Hutchins Thousand Year Old Campfire. It's an incredibly realistic game about how to create an archaeology field report from the bottom up. I'm glad it worked out well for this game. https://thousandyearoldvampire.com/products/tyoc
