Nice, Unravel is kind of cozy too! That's my preference for games nowadays. I get enough stress elsewhere ๐Ÿ˜…

What types of games do you like?? There's a cute one game I finished with my daughter called Unravel. Kinda laid back with puzzles and pretty imagery.

Hi Kala! I wasn't able to hop on yesterday, apologies. If you were presented with a story that needed help fleshing out a major world-building element, would that be a hard no for you? Or would that seem like an exciting challenge? I have a belief system that definitely needs help haha.

Very late to the game, apologies! If a story needs help with fleshing out a major world-building element, say adding facets to the world's belief-system, would that intimidate you? Or would you see that as a fun challenge?

Nine images and ripped paper reading "Is revenge worth losing everything?" in the center. The images feature from left to right - a red starry sky, a skull with a tilted crown atop its head and a fallen-over cup next to it, a girl with her back turned to the camera who has short red hair and is wearing a leather jacket, a chess piece knocking another chess piece over, a palace in the middle of the sea, a hand covered in fire, two girls about to kiss, a bloody door, and an ocean cliffside.

When Ley signs up for a competition to marry a prince, it's not for love but for revenge. To kill his mother for killing her own. Though Ley also has other problems... A vicious, pretty rival, a megalomaniac father, and powers that should be extinct but aren't.

Blurb:

One for Sorrow, Two for Joy, Three for a Girl, Four for a Boyโ€ฆ
Ryn is a small-town thief with a knack for being overconfident in her abilities, but by day sheโ€™s a beloved tavern girl with the liver of steel that carries her reputation. On her most daring break-in yet, she runs face first into the kingdomโ€™s last living assassin, Seven, and heโ€™s just offered her the opportunity of a century: a ticket of attendance to the Kingโ€™s upcoming courtship gathering. Itโ€™s a partnership sheโ€™d definitely be a fool to take up, but desperation fuels ever decision she makes.
Five for Silver, Six for Goldโ€ฆ
Seven is set in his own plans, however much they interfere with hers, and they wonโ€™t be the only ones in attendance with hidden agendas. When the castle goes into lockdown, itโ€™s survival of the cunning and silver-tongued. The rich are dropped like flies, and all suspicions are on them.
Seven for a Secret, Never to be Told.
