🤝 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

Queer slice-of-life and immortal romance.Fall in love with Earth, and maybe each other.Content warnings: romance, sexuality, queerness, gender and dysphoria, social rejection, and healing from trauma.For 3–5 players across 3–4 hours. Heaven Has No Taste gives us longing glances and comfortable silences; sheltering wings and holding hands; unfamiliar bodies and feeding ducks by the pond; supportive friends and found family; and always our history lingering between us, asking “who will you fall for now that you're free?” In Heaven Has No Taste we play angels and demons who have abandoned our positions in the Ineffable Bureaucracy. Living on Earth among the freedom, passion, and bustle of our human neighbors, we have—for the first time in our immortal existences—space and permission to build a community together, process our pasts, and explore the intimacy now open to us. Life here is full of overwhelming joys and emotional risks, but we don’t have to face them alone.We don’t need the Bureaucracy and its eternal, doctrinal war. We have each other now.
