🤝 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.

Description
dear love was designed as a letter-writing game between two people after the apocalypse. The players write letters back and forth, following prompts to craft a story of connection after the ending of the world. This game can be adapted to other forms of communication, such as email or a shared google doc. However, even though it is designed as a 2 player game, it can also be adapted to be a solo journaling game. You and your fellow player will craft the post-apocalyptic world you are in, and then create unique characters. You'll decide the theme of the story you will be creating with your partner as prompts are very open for interpretation. You will need a way to communicate between the two players and a two d8s. Due to the setting being a post-apocalyptic players may play with themes of ruin, loss, death, and regret. Handle with care.
