Description
Note: this game is PWYW, but for a specific reason. Trans people: please download the game for free. Cis people: do not download the game unless you pay the suggested price. If that is a barrier for you, then so be it; this game isn't written for cis people to play. BLOOD & hormones is a tabletop roleplaying game for 3-5 players played exclusively via a deck of playing or tarot cards. In BLOOD & hormones you play a cadre of trans punks trying desperately to survive in a cyberpunk future that wants them dead. What does it mean to be owned by others? How can you live in community with those who have hurt you? What sacrifices will you make to actualize your body? Most of all, where will you find hope together?
