We will use Robin D Laws’ DramaSystem rules engine to create a story of high-stakes interpersonal conflict. I will have three playsets with me – we’ll agree on which one we use on the day. We’ll create characters with conflicting needs and goals, and then we’ll find out what happens.
Hazelwood Abbey: Downton Abbey meets Hillfolk. Players play an aristocratic family in a player-led dramatic game of emotional needs and wants.
Success too Soon: Soonest is a recently formed pop band with a successful first album and one stand-out single that topped the UK charts. Their record label has presented the band with a contract for two more albums, but the band has not signed it yet. And as the end of their first UK tour approaches, tensions are starting to show…
And of course…
Hillfolk: In arid Bronze-age badlands, the hill people hunger. Your neighbours have grain and cattle. You have horses and spears, courage and ambition. But will you get what you want?
