Description:
“I’ve Been Having Some Weird Thoughts Lately… Like, Is Any of This for Real, Or Not…?”
Everything we’ve ever imagined exists in our collective unconscious, bubbled up into little worlds that are kept spinning by our thoughts and feelings. This energy is collected by our Nostalgia, invisible creatures who keep our fantasies alive by their very presence. In the corner of this realm where the worlds of Bioware and Cartoon Network are connected (for whatever reason!), these creatures are defended by a group of magic world travelers called the Knot Weavers. Armed with magic weapons made of rope and able to see all hidden things, they stand strong against the darkness.
However, a Crisis has begun which has just now been brought to the Knot Weavers’ attention. Beings of darkness led by a mysterious figure in a white cloak have been swarming over worlds, targeting Nostalgia and consuming them by the score. Other villains, led by the wicked alien named Saren, have been using these creatures to cause chaos as well. Worlds are collapsing, and the Knot Weavers stand in a unique position to stop the tide of entropy from consuming imagination!
You and your fellow Knot Weavers have been tasked by the Council of Elders to travel to new worlds, make new connections, and defend Nostalgia to keep the worlds together. You may journey to the sun scorched sands of ancient Tatooine or the gleaming City of Townsville, standing side by side with Garrus or Dexter, fighting the dark forces of Teryn Loghain or Homeworld. By the power of friendship, light, and the strength of your heart, you have a chance to end the Crisis and restore what was lost.
This game is Interstitial: Our Hearts Entwined, a Powered by the Apocalypse game that is based on the Kingdom Hearts video game series. It is a game of connections and crossover, drawing strength from the links you make with other characters and getting the opportunity to explore familiar fictional worlds. This takes place in a custom setting where Bioware and Cartoon Network are blended together, but no experience with either property is required! Players will be able to make their own characters (or portray an established character!) and help define elements of the setting before taking off on an adventure that follows similar beats to the original Kingdom Hearts story.
If you enjoy silly crossover, fanfiction, or any of the fictional realms listed above, this may just be the game for you!

I’ve had the immense pleasure of play-testing this game. Jeanette’s mishmash of Cartoon Network, Bioware games, and Kingdom Hearts shows unmatched love and devotion to these properties which include impressions, inside jokes, and Easter eggs that make this a splendid experience for a fan of any of these IPs. The best part is you only need a touch of familiarity with these elements as the game has a plethora of options to where the story can go. It’s makes for a strange goulash, yet oh so tasty.
