🤝 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.

  • Character creation free of a gender binary
    According to the game’s rulebook
    “Lines and veils Go around the group and each set up any hard lines you have”
  • Safety tools (X-card, lines & veils, session zero)
    According to the game’s rulebook
    “Lines and veils Go around the group and each set up any hard lines you have”

Description

You and yours have been in this town a long, long time. You heard once that it’s a safe place - safe enough, at least - for people like you. It’s not that they’re putting up welcome banners - the Normals here don’t know what lurks just below the surface of their town. Even here, you hide yourselves away - but here, you aren’t being hunted. The first thing any monster hates, of course, is hunters. According to the aphorism you hear at the monster’s haunts, the second thing that monsters hate is other monsters. Years of cohabitation have borne petty infighting, honest duels and dishonest brawls. Put two random monsters from this town in a room and the chances are high they’ll find something in common to hate about each other. All of that will need to be set aside, though. Because the hunters are here.
