Description:

You may wonder “Who am I? Why am I here?” as you sit there in your hospital gown at a table with 4 other similarly attired individuals. The people in charge assure you that the pills you just ingested will lead to answers. Answers from the mouth of your companions, answers that are right or could have been right had things gone differently, answers that will spark your memory. It promises to be an interesting evening as you reconstruct your life in the same way a kidnapper puts together a ransom letter.

As described at rpg.net

In Penny For My Thoughts “The players cooperate in building each other’s stories, ending with the story of how they came to lose their memories. The system is entirely narrative and lacks randomizers. During each scene, one player’s character is the “traveler”, whose memories are being investigated. The other players take turns asking leading/guiding questions, which frame the scene. The traveler’s player must accept the questions as true, but can further develop the idea. The game them proceeds to a decision point, where two alternate paths are laid out and the player must choose one. There are several decisions as each strand of memory is explored. ”

Sheets and pennies provided. We’ll go over off-limit subject areas beforehand.

*Content warning: themes of amnesia present in the game and decision points with limited player agency.
