Princess with a Cursed SRD
A downloadable game
THIS IS A GUIDE to making solo role-playing games that use tarot cards, based on Princess with a Cursed Sword. Princess Sword games are mindful, compact games with simple mechanics that change based on what tarot deck they're played with.
Princess with a Cursed SRD (System Resource Document) is a one-page (double-sided) explanation of the design behind each element of a Princess Sword game - why it's there, what it's for, what it does.
