Ruin in Bloom

Become statues watching over a garden in Ruin in Bloom, a short collaborative roleplaying game about growth, time, and decay. Describe the scenes unfolding before you as the plants flourish and the stone bodies of your characters slowly deteriorate.

Prompts guide each round, while the number of sentences available to describe events shrinks as the statues erode. This simple constraint gives the passage of time a tangible effect on the story. Designed for at least three players without a GM; requires two six-sided dice, paper, and pens.
