Spoken in the Dark
A downloadable game
Words have power.
When you learn new languages you look at the world anew.
When you look at the world with new eyes you realise you can change it.
But you can't do it alone.
You play two people on a new world, plucked from your life and home. Neither of you speak the other's language fluently, but in the process of learning it you discover, with these new words, you can change this world and maybe one day get home.
A game for those of you who, like me, cannot learn alone.
Spoken in the Dark is a prompt based 2 or more player game using the Forged in the Dark dice system to enhance your language practice.
This is an early version of the game to see if there is interest. Future development plans include more moves, playbooks, translations, and art.
Purchasing the book at this price will provide you with access to all future developments to the game for free. The price may change later, but it will not affect those of you who have already purchased a copy.

Hey, The pitch seems interesting, but I don’t understand how it looks like at the table: do we talk to each other in plain language ? or what ? Could it work for a written language (not mere code) ?
