The War in Everything
A downloadable game
The War in Everything is a Belonging Outside Belonging game for two.
One player takes on the role of a pilot; the other takes on the mech.
There is no GM in this game: both players also take on that role; both players also play the war.
The central mechanic of this game, instead of the typical token economy of Belonging Outside Belonging, is a block tower. Players pull blocks from the tower instead of spending tokens.
When the tower falls, players answer a few final questions, knowing that their resistance to an imperial force has failed. And then, the game is over.
This is the re-imagined version of the game submitted to Sad Mech Jam!

A very small game belonging to the BoB school offering the story of a mech and his pilot, with only two characters and two facets of the war, which is everywhere and devours everything. Add to this a mechanic adapted from Dread and its use of the Jenga tower, to vaguely make the game revolve around the myth of the Tower of Babel, and you get something very evocative and clever.
This is insanely good, the tower analog is sublime. I can’t. Both characters being the war is Godly. I will be finding time to play this. !!!!ALSO your writing tone is superb
