Create your epic fantasy together and discover…  What happens after the quest is over?    

The Lord of the Rings provides the inspiration for this game. Imagine the hobbits on their way home after the quest was over—reminiscing about the adventures they had along the way, and wondering whether the ideals they loved would be waiting for them at their homecoming. Merry and Pippin became heroes, Sam married his Rosie, but poor Frodo found that he had saved the Shire… but not for himself.

Together you choose a genre, and create the realm and the great enemy of your quest, along with allies and threats. Then as you are returning home you use flashbacks to remember the story of your quest. The highs, the lows, triumphs and tragedies. Ordinary playing cards are used to prompt the emotional content of scenes.  You can defeat dragons, tyrants, undead or supernatural foes; across faerie, faded, or other realms.
