Ship Lanterns
A story roleplaying game set in a Southeast Asian village, where children gather on a bridge to cast cherry blossoms into the river and ask the spirit Thuy-Tinh to grant their wishes. Players portray the children and deal with the unexpected consequences of those wishes. The game requires no preparation and supports three or more players, using a poker deck and tokens to track Drama Points. Session length increases with the number of players.
