Sample Hacks & Mods
"Emily Care Boss designs beautiful games about the most important thing in the world: love. Her games are so strong, so obviously right, so elegant and well crafted, that you forget how important they are in the joy of playing them." Kenneth Hite, Designer of NIGHT'S BLACK AGENTS
I played a game of Breaking the Ice on my honeymoon! It's a really fun game and great for both experienced role-players and non-gamers. Kat Jones, Designer of REVIVED and SLAYER CAKE
Shooting the Moon's wonderful focus on the unstable triangle of two competing suitors and one occasionally bewildered but always beguiling beloved is a perfect recipe for excitement and romance. You can confidently plunge into Jane Austen or dinosaur wrestling, and Shooting the Moon will deliver every time. Jason Morningstar, Designer of FIASCO and NIGHT WITCHES
About Under my Skin: This was my first chance to try a Jeepform game, and I was incredibly impressed with the variety of gaming techniques available. This is a game that truly got under my skin and affected me deeply and passionately. Willow Palacek, Designer of AWESOME ADVENTURES and ESCAPE FROM TENTACLE CITY
