Played this with two friends who hadn't read Ronja Robber's Daughter (my childhood favorite book) but the playbooks did a lot of work putting them in the headspace. It was so interesting how we had story beats that lined up with the book without them knowing but also stuff that completely diverged.
We found it a little difficult to structure the game because we weren't super used to Belonging Outside Belonging style games but still had a great time.
Thank you, that’s really nice of you to say, and it makes me really happy to hear that the bare-bones of a game here work as intended! Super glad you found it and had a good time and thanks for sharing!
A PbtA game set in a Scandinavian fantasy world. Instead of picking different playbooks, each player uses the same playbook for their two characters. Characters can be Child, Adult or Elder; they can age from one stage to another, and each stage has its own unique moves. I like how the world is described in the game, with wonders to explore and mysterious creatures to meet; and the changing seasons gives players a distinct focus at different times of the year.
