The Well is a standalone game zine for playing larger than life characters in a variety of settings. 

• Low prep but prep-friendly for GM's that like creating details and then being surprised at the table
• Tactile system that uses evocative found tokens instead of dice or cards
• Quick trait-based character creation and low mechanics load for easier immersion
• Designed for evolving long-form play

Includes prep tools for building your own setting, a pre-created starting scenario and characters, and a sheet of tokens to try it out!
