I also made a second game for the Dice Exploder podcast’s Game Exploder game jam, which is a mashup of Ars Magica with the mechanics from Grasping Nettles.
The game is called Florilegium. You’ll also need this wheel to play the game.
Rusałka
On the night of the full moon, the rusałka dance by the edge of their enchanted pool. On these nights, people from the village come to ask their aid. The rusałka possess many strange magical talents, but the gifts they grant rarely turn out the way the petitioners hoped.
Rusałka is a storytelling game for 3-6 players about tragic fairy tales, self discovery, and wishes gone wrong. Each player will roleplay as one of the rusałka, the spirits of women that drowned in a mystic pond. As you play, you discover who your rusałka was in life. You will also take turns portraying the desperate mortals who request the help of the rusałka, though asking may dangerous and unpredictable. Playing the game should take 2-4 hours.
The Devil, John Moulton
Somewhere out there is your quarry. The one that you’ve been hunting across the vast desert of the American West. The one who showed you how to bind a demon to your soul. John Moulton. Murderer, bank robber, outlaw and demon summoning warlock. The man they call ‘The Devil John’.
You’ve gathered together a posse. Each of your posse is also seeking the same sorcerous bandit that you are. Each says that they want Devil John dead. Some of them might even be telling the truth.
