You have never seen anything quite like this in your entire life... Endless amounts of all matter of items, dusty documents, artifacts of all kinds from a lost world, of a time long forgotten.
The very odd archivist greets you and quickly shakes your hand with a wide bright smile on his face. He wants to show you everything, yes, yes! It's been so long since someone last visited him and had any interest in his work.
You are a wanderer and you have no memories of your previous life. However wherever you go people welcome you with stories, food and shelter in exchange for your assistance.
You help others in order to recover what you have lost. If you choose not to aid, their desires will become cursed and forever lost.
Rumors of a strange deadly affliction called the Red Lichen has led you to a very old library. There you are hoping to find a remedy to the horrific disease that plagues these unfortunates that ultimately take their own lives...
You'll be faced with cruel choices; this game is not about winning. It is about telling a tragic story in a medieval ever-changing world, where the forest lays claim to everything, and where its creatures have gone mad, where nature and animals are merging with humans, and fears and nightmares materialize in reality...
"WalkingStick" is a game that has a strong emphasis on collaborative storytelling, and all players are encouraged to create major parts of the narrative during play. The entire group rolls the dice together as one and from there decides the outcomes of the dramatic moments discovered throughout the session.
Enjoy a Ghibli-esque and Nightmarish Fairy-tale in "Walking Stick".

"My Immortal" is a Wizarding World fanfiction written in 2006 and widely infamous as the most ridiculous fanfiction ever written.

Cozy story game about former adventurers trying to settle down and run a tavern
Genre: Fantasy, Slice-of-Life
Playstyle: GM-less, narrative, mini-games
Language: English
Safety Tools: Hold (similar to X-Card), Open Door, others if necessary.
In Stewpot - Tales from a Fantasy Tavern we tell the story of a group of retired adventurers who, after a life of hardship and travelling, are trying to settle down and run a tavern together.
The game is played out in a series of mini-games providing narrative prompts for slice-of-life scenes. Maybe we'll be calming down a tavern brawl, providing service for a distinguished guest, going to the market to get all the things for the tavern, or just take some time off to relax.
We'll also work on upgrading the tavern, improving its cuisine, atmosphere, and service, hiring more staff, etc.
Stewpot is played in a group of up 4 people, without a GM. I'll be moderating the game for you (potentially also playing a main character, depending on group size).
The game should be beginner-friendly. I'm aiming for a cozy, casual atmosphere and we'll be taking breaks as required. I'll also provide all required materials. Please let me know if you have any questions.
Stewpot - Tales from a Fantasy Tavern is a game by Takuma Okada, published by Evil Hat Productions in 2024. Cover artwork used with express permission (thank you, Chris!).
