A downloadable acrostic

The economy of words in ultra light games and in the works of OSR designers like Chris McDowall has a poetic beauty to it. When I thought about making a playable poem in an OSR style my original intention was for a more serious homage to the genre. I had wanted to play on the dreamlike settings of games like a Troika and Mythic Bastionland. Unfortunately I realised I could make it an acrostic, so instead of a longer more beautiful game in verse it became something silly. Thanks to Tam, Logan and the Lyrical Ludology Discord for making it better than I’d have made it on my own.

I hope you enjoy it!
