The loss of a woman, fragmented memories, the Queen of Hearts, a childhood song, and an infinite mirror: such is the cycle of travelers wandering in nostalgia. An actual play with Lucas Falk, Côme Martin, and Thomas Munier.

I’m happy to have found the time to put together this actual play before the end of the Dragonfly Motel crowdfunding campaign.
I hope you’ll find the art direction intriguing; we tried something different compared to the first actual play.
It was also an opportunity to play with Lucas Falk, my editor, and with Côme Martin, a French author who produces completely crazy role-playing games, including:
The Box & the Key, a Lynchian, mindfuck TTRPG. That means it’s not going to make sense, but it’s going to be a memorable experience, if you let it. Also a tribute to Dragonfly Motel.
The Red Lion Hotel, a narrative game for 2 to 6 players and one hour or more. It will help you imagine the inside of a grand hotel at the beginning of the 20th century and the characters—clients and staff members—in it.
