Welcome to Second Star to the Left! Here’s where we share board game reviews, ramblings, and a few wrong turns along the scenic route!
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………….
In Dreams, is a slightly surreal storytelling game for one and the winner of the 2022 54-Card Game Design Contest on BoardGameGeek. The core deck of In Dreams provides card-based journaling prompts with vivid imagery and evocative text to immerse you in a dreamworld you wouldn’t have otherwise imagined. 36 prompt cards each have 4 prompts on them, and a location on the back. 18 event cards have 3 events each, modified by six possible "tones". The cards chain together in interesting ways to create millions of potential unique encounters. The dreamscape is fluid and surreal. Close your eyes and let the dream carry you through worlds never before imagined…
