🤝 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

HEIRLOOMS is a diceless roleplaying game for two players, one taking the role of a nonbinary adult, and the other taking the role of their cisgender parent. The players co-construct their characters, then improvise a series of tense conversations that are ostensibly about objects, but are actually about their relationship. This culminates in an explosive showdown over the object with the most emotional baggage for both characters: The Heirloom. Content Warnings: Emotional abuse, dysphoria, misgendering, transphobia. ~~~ Stock Photo: Florid wallpaper by semireal-stockBody Font: Muli by Vernon AdamsAccent Font: Merienda by Eduardo Tunni
