When the Dark is Gone

System: Standalone, freeform

Author: Becky Annison

Deadline: June 15th

Description:

Imagine the children in The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.  They visited a magical land, fought battles alongside talking animals and centaurs and won a war against a powerful and evil enemy.  Then they returned home, no-one believed them and they were back to war time rations and maths homework.  What did that feel like? How did they live with the memories of what they experienced?

Did they end up in therapy?

When the Dark is Gone is a GM’d story game for 3-4 players, who take on the roles of Clients in a real-world, modern-day setting, whose serious psychological disorders are damaging them and those closest to them. The game is set in their group therapy session – one final attempt to get their lives back on track.

Rise and Fall

System: Standalone, freeform

Author: Elizabeth Lovegrove

Deadline: June 15th

Description:

Dystopias come from somewhere, and they go somewhere. They appear because someone is able to convince others that they are reasonable, and they disappear because someone is able to exploit their weaknesses. They rise, and they fall.

Rise and Fall is a GM-less story game for 2-5 people in which players create a dystopia, explore its rise to power, how everyday life operates during its tenure, and then how the regime is brought down.
