🤝 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

Exquisite Polycule is a polyamorous romantic comedy game for 3-6 players. In it, you work together to create a cast of characters from a randomized list of attributes, and tell their love story by playing scenes in a five act structure. It is played with paper, pencils, dice, and your imagination. An updated version of the game, True Love Edition, is now funding on Kickstarter. This game was included in the San Genaro Co-Op's Short Games Digest volume 4. To get Exquisite Polycule and seven other brilliant games, buy it here. Exquisite Polycule was edited by Marx Shepherd. The layout was designed by Francita Soto.
