The Village on the Hill: A Peaceful Storytelling Game
The Village on the Hill A non-violent¸ positive storytelling game
In The Village on the Hill players become little spirits called Kami whose sole purpose is to help people on Earth. This is an all-ages storytelling game about teamwork¸ positivity and harmony - a game that replaces combat with problem-solving and fosters creativity.
Each Kami has their own coloured aura¸ which helps them undertake tasks. For instance¸ a Kami with the purple Aura of the Body is strong and athletic. Character sheets are kept incredibly simple¸ with a focus on storytelling and interaction over rules. The game uses a framework of obstacles¸ consequences and resolutions to build a shared story.
The Village on the Hill is a game for 3-5 friends who want to get together for an hour or so to work together and have a great time doing it.
This is very much a beta version of the game¸ so feedback is welcome. The book is PWYW¸ but I encourage you to check it out for free before deciding on whether to pay.
