Burning4

“One burner represents your family, one is your friends, the third is your health, and the fourth is your work.” The gist is that in order to be successful you have to cut off one of your burners. And in order to be really successful you have to cut off two.

This story game starts with this quote from a David Sedaris article. And that’s what we’ll test in this game, trying to answer these questions: what are you burning for? And, was it worth it in the end? We’ll have a last scene of hope - but what will happen that gets us to it?

This game has no game master / director and no preparation beforehand. It can handle 2 to 5 players and should last 2-3 hours including the setup phase.
