🤝 Inclusive design ⓘInclusive design is separate from a game’s queer labels. It marks games whose design is deliberately inclusive even when not queer-themed: romance or marriage mechanics with no gender constraint, character creation without a forced gender binary, gender-neutral rules language, or table safety tools. Each marker shows where we found it.
- Safety tools (X-card, lines & veils, session zero)
According to the game’s own description
“It is everyone's responsibility to provide a non-judgemental space for players to disengage at any time and to utilize appropriate safety tools to do so.”
Description
Starlight is a GM-less roleplaying game where you wake up in a strange, unknown world not knowing who you are and where your home is. It’s a game about building cities from memories, about the people who live in them, and all the weird, familiar things that can happen-- things that will help you remember. It’s a game about healing, about changing, about discovering who you are and who you want to be. It's a game about finding home, wherever that may be. Starlight can be played with two to five players without a game master or facilitator, but is best played with three to four people. A complete game of Starlight may take multiple sessions of three or more hours of play depending on the amount of players. Create cities rich with diverse life, get to know its people and culture, and discover how it all connects to your characters' pasts. Change, grow, and become someone you want to be as you regain more of your memories and make friends along the way. One of the central themes of Starlight is memory loss. As such, game sessions have the potential to explore heavy topics related to trauma. It is everyone's responsibility to provide a non-judgemental space for players to disengage at any time and to utilize appropriate safety tools to do so. Endless thanks to the Our Shores team, for making this possible in the first place and my lovely editor, Lexi, who's always there to help me along the way!
