This is a prototype

Campfire Stories is a mad-libs style campfire storytelling card game where you fill in the blanks from characters to create your own chaotic tales.

There are 5 stories to create in this prototype and one character (ghost).

How to play

You choose in rounds of three random story prompts. Each card has it's stats on what it will add or subtract from your final story. Your stats for your current story are on the left, and your current story objective is on the top-right.

Here are the categories for the stat icons:

• Bat - Spooky
• Chair - Lonely
• Tea - Cozy
• Alien - Weird
• Magnifying Glass - Mystery
• Lighting Bolt - Action
• Sparkles - Magical
• Cloud - Sad
• Leaf - Calm

What I would add if I continued this project

• New quirky characters with different personalities to fill in blanks in your story, and to have each character's word cards reflect their personality. The idea would be you go around the campfire getting words from each character.
• Make the stories make more sense - most of the time you end up with stories that make no sense at all and I'd like to improve that but it was proving quite difficult (if anyone has any suggestions on how to do so I'd like to hear).
• More roguelike elements to cards - fun abilities, modifiers, etc for more strategy and replayability
• More objectives, goals, maybe some sort of "Boss Stories" every now and then with failure penalties?
• Add more balancing, change the categories up to include different story genres like fantasy, horror, romance, etc.
