Lonely Hearts Home for the Elderly

The Game

Lonely Hearts Home for the Elderly is a game in which you assume the character of an old person at a retirement home. It’s a romance!

What I Like About This One:

One of my favorite things to do in other role-playing games is establish relationship roles. Like, even in D&D I’ll have people pick a best friend and a rival in the group and provide small mechanical benefits to those roles, because I think that sort of thing helps role-playing. Making it into a specific rule felt right.

I also love games with secret win conditions

What I’d Do Differently Next Time:

Mostly in the formatting on this one. Tried something different and holy hell did it not work. Lil dude’s just floating off the end of the page there.
