Luncheons and Dragonflies on Kickstarter on May 15th, 2023. Free 12-page sample
HERE.
It’s not easy being small. But it helps to have a big heart.
In Luncheons and Dragonflies
, you play a critter, a tiny animal native to the woodlands of my Virginia, USA hometown. You can be a mouse, bat, squirrel, or groundhog, to name a few.
But critters in Luncheons and Dragonflies
aren’t your garden-variety animals. They can speak, walk on hind legs when it suits them, and scavenge the woodland floor and people’s houses for useful things, like weapons and snacks.
Your critter is a hero. While most critters keep their nose to the ground, yours embarks on courageous quests to find snacks, scavenge for useful items, safeguard others, and defeat bigger, scarier animals—like rats, cats, coyotes, and bears. Your critter and their ragtag team can attain glory and conquest, or just a good picnic with all the trimmings.From the Publisher of Those Who Wander RPG and Demiverse.All the dice in
Luncheons and Dragonflies are four-sided, perfect for tiny critter paws! A lot of the fun of the game is hoarding dice on the fly. Steal them from your enemies, trade them with your friends, lend them when things get desperate, swipe them to get the upper hand/paw, and reroll them when they've been bad!
