The Unfolk

This game offers an optional 40% discount for members of marginalized communities. No questions, no judgment.

We told you there was no other world, that we were just like everybody else. It's time we told you the truth.

For generations, your family has lived in secret, hiding among the normal folk of the world for fear of what they might do if your people were ever discovered. You have hoped to spare your children the burden of the truth until they were older, when they might be wise enough to understand, strong enough to survive. But time is not on your side; your people have been found out, and the government is coming, and it's time to get out. Do what you can to make sure your children have what they need to get them back to the other world, where your people await.

The Unfolk is a conversational game to be played by two players. One player takes on the role of the parent, desperate to impart what knowledge they can before time runs out. The other player is the child, full of questions and worries. The game is meant to be played in under an hour, but there is no time limit.

To play, you will need:

• something to write with
• some paper to write on
• an unsealed envelope
• a six-sided die

The entire game is housed in the PDF, which is designed to be readable on a smartphone screen.
