Hearts Blazing: Melodramatic Sci-Fi Adventure
What's your favorite action show or movie? Pretend I missed it and need you to tell me EVERYTHING awesome that happened. That's how we storygame.
Hearts Blazing is a casual storygame for 3 to 5 players who have a love of episodic fiction and about 1 to 2 hours. After generating a fiction setting together, players take on the roles of dynamic but recognizable specific archetypes.
Drawing episode frameworks from a plotline deck, players collaboratively create an episodic epic of conflict and romance. By bidding clichés on each episode they capture keywords associated with their hidden motivations and compete to see who has final say on the fate of their story.
After generating a speculative fiction setting together, players take on the roles of dynamic but recognizable archetypes with hidden motivations. They draw from a randomized deck of “episodes” which prompt collaborative-narration scenes using evocative introductions. Players bid cliches on each episode to secure the keyword awards associated with their motivation. While there is no winner, per se, the character who secured the most of their keywords reveals the post session denouement of their character last, getting final say on plot outcomes
