Golden Sky Stories

A heartwarming, non-violent role-playing game that’s great fun for all ages. It takes place in a small town in rural Japan, and players take on the role of henge (pronounced hen-gay, like a chicken that’s happy), animals with just a little magical power, including the ability to temporarily take human form. They do not fight great battles or unearth valuable treasures though; Golden Sky Stories adventures are all about helping others and becoming friends. Recommended for 3-5 players (including one Narrator). Average play time is 1-2 hours.

Excerpt: 

This is a game, and yet it isn’t. It isn’t a game where you fight with others. It isn’t a game where you
compete with others. It’s a game where everyone works together to create a story. If you can tell a good
story, everyone wins, and if the story is boring, then everyone loses. That’s the kind of game this is.
The henge do not fight with weapons or magic. They don’t seek out or expose great secrets. They
don’t save the world. They don’t earn money. Stories about henge are simpler, but every bit as important.
They save people not through money or food, but with their hearts. Such stories are waiting for you in
this town.
