Eventually, there will be a clever introduction for this that sets the tone for the stories you write. For now, know this:

Queen Victoria is on the throne, and monsters and mages lurk in the British countryside. You hunt them, as once did your friend. Now, you are unsure if they have joined the other side. You have come to the remote English moors to wait for them, and prepare for the end of your story together.

Wonderful game to play, with enough meat in its prompts to set the creative gears rolling and enough structure to function as a game. Delightful. Thank you very much.

Green and Unpleasant Land is a Second Guess game about waiting alone in a shack for another monster hunter who you suspect has betrayed you. You are sitting, waiting, and remembering.

You start with 3 Threat and as you answer the prompts by rolling 1d20, it can either increase or decrease throughout the game. 

When you roll a number twice, the game is over your partner has arrived, and you can decide if you wish to kill them. Then  roll 1d6 and if it is over your threat level they mean you no harm. 

I only rolled 7 rounds before I got a repeat number. I reminisced about how there were always signs questioning my partnerโ€™s loyalty but I had been ignoring them. You can read my playthough Here

Glad to hear from someone actually playing through this. Makes me happy to know my games are working as games and not dressing on my itch.io page.
