You're summoned to make a wish from a genie who has seen little more than the worst of humanity. Complete the genie's trials, craft the perfect wish, and then make your wish. Can you make a truly great wish, and show the genie that not all people are so selfish?
The Summoned is a collection of 13 dice games, tied together with a narrative and optional journaling. This is an __analog__ game. You'll need to print two pages (two score sheets; the other 14 pages can be read on your favorite screen from a PDF) and to collect 12 dice: 10 in one color and 2 in another. Each game's rules are short and easy to understand, and the entire experience can be played within 30-60 minutes depending on your reading speed and if you skip the story stuff or not (we haven't timed it or playtested the entire experience together yet; I'll update this once we do). This time doesn't include journaling, as you can take as little or as much time with that as you want. :D
Everything you need is in the "The Summoned" PDF file.
You can also check out:
