A Tarot-based Adventure Scenario Design Game
Equipment:
- Standard Tarot deck (78 cards: 56 suited, 22 trumps)
- Meeples, 5 each of a color for each PCs/Faction
- Assign 2 court cards from the deck for each player character. These describe 2 of the 3 key questions that define a character (who are you? what do you want? how are you trying to do that?) and are interpreted based on what’s not described by the other cards that will be played. More cards will be dealt after the initial set up of the game “board.” Continued…
