I'm in the middle of my first game and it is great so far. I just wish that there was a way to access the world sheet and character sheet when you buy the physical book. I bought the book and read that you need these materials, so I DM'ed the author on X to no avail. I ended up buying the digital version as well and realizing that I could have gotten along fine if I had made my own, and that the official sheet is not essential for gameplay. The book just says you need the materials but is not clear on what they contain or how essential they are. They are just tracking sheets for the rolls you make. Otherwise beautiful game, beautiful illustrations, and great mechanics. I just wish I knew I only needed to spend $15 instead of $30 on both versions. 

Hey! I'm glad you're enjoying the game so far, I'd love to hear about how it goes! :)

As a note, if you're a backer of the game on Kickstarter you should definitely have received access to all of the digital files via both Itch and BackerKit, so if that's not the case please message me on Kickstarter and I'll work that out for you. However, if you bought the physical copy not through Kickstarter (at Breakout Con?), I can definitely send you the digital files free of charge of course, sorry about that! 

My X account is... basically not used anymore, sorry, so I wouldn't have seen the message there. It's also notoriously bad for not showing messages even when I was using it, so I likely missed it even if I did log on. It's best to reach out via Bluesky if that's an option for you!

I can issue you a refund really easily here if you'd like, but please message me on Kickstarter (if you're a backer) or Bluesky as it's easier to manage than X. :)

The overall design structure of the game is done quite well I would say, I like a lot of the world-building and the openness of the encounters for roleplay.

What is the exclusive content? I backed the kickstarter and got the book yesterday, but there was no exclusive content that i'm aware of...?

Hi there, what exclusive content are you asking about? Are you having difficulty accessing the digital files here?

It says on the page "support at or above the price point to have access to exclusive content", did we also have access to this exclusive content on the kickstarter?

Ohhhh, I see now!! That's just a weird "Itch interface" thing, whenever we make a "reward" item (using the Rewards and Exclusive Content" part of the backend) for Community Copies, it shows up like that. There's no "exclusive content" gated behind it though, it's just a weird backend thing!! :)

Got it, thanks for the info! I received the book Sunday and read it front to back, great stuff, looking forward to solo run it soon

I want to leave a 5 star rating but can’t see the option to leave feedback

Hi! Thank you so much for wanting to leave a rating, those are always super helpful. :) When you go to "Rate this game," it should give you a little text box to leave feedback as well as the star rating. Let me know if it's still giving your trouble though, that is odd if so.

I played this with a friend on New Years Eve and we had an amazing time. We noticed that it was absolutely possible to roleplay the event scenes but decided on collaborative storytelling instead and really enjoyed that! At the halfway point of events we had already lost 3 Lordsworns with the remaining ones having 2, 2 and 1 wound each. We were convinced we wouldn't make it and the characters development was steering towards bittersweet hopefulness. But with sheer insane luck we managed to finally suceed on missions and got to victory by the skin of our teeth. We had a beautiful and melancholic saved godless ending were we were able to give every character a fitting send off. I can't wait to play this game again!

Honestly great game for an afternoon of solo playing

I can tell you had a lot of fun doing all the worldbuilding and I applaud you for that

Lordsworn is a game about loss, despair and finding hope in community. 

I played this game twice with two different friends and I had an absolute blast each time! The mechanic is amazing, especially when you fail an event: it's always very tense when we roll to know the outcome. We got really attached to our characters, roleplayed some downtimes to deepen their relationships between scenes. The more we were close to the end, the more we thought we couldn't make it and it made our victory even better. 

If we did succeed twice, we lost at least two lordsworns in each game (and those brutal moments were awesome to roleplay). I'll definitely play it again!

I'd strongly recommend Lordsworn to anyone who love chivalric tales, the soulsborne games and drama.

Out of curiosity, why is this game labelled as Queer? Because it was submitted to the Trans Rights bundle?

Hi! Sorry, this got lost in my notifications. Labelled as Queer for a few reasons, honestly - queer creator, queer co-creators, and in game queer deities.

Hi there! I wanted to check in on the development of this. Things are still progressing to v1.0?

(+1)

Hey! Thanks for asking, apologies I realize it's a little less clear here than on the Kickstarter for the roadmap. I'll add that over the next few days to make it clearer! :) 

Version 0.7 will be coming Soon, likely February 4th/5th. Then progress continues to 1.0!
