Sword Dance
What is it?
According to its itch.io page, it’s a Party LARP game for 5+. 1+ hours. No idea why it was in a Solo RPG bundle.
Is it playable out of the box?
No. There are 16 rules that make very little sense unless you read all of them and mutually decide on how to implement this.
Amendments:
Agreement on how to structure the danceoff.
Tools
Music. Judges. Other people. A safe area to dance in. Plenty of water.
Price:
$1
Verdict
📟 Not a game
WTF did I just read? Am I drunk?
Is this what being drunk is like, you take a bunch of unrelated sentences and you think they’re the best thing ever? I’m not saying that competitive dancing is a bad idea for a LARP, though adding swords probably is, but this would have benefited from several more pages explaining WTF you’re supposed to do with it, and how to do it safely.
