I played this game as a group of 5 at Halloween this year. It was all of our first time playing a Belonging Outside Belonging game. I think the game is beautiful and brilliant. I think it’s really really hard (maybe just because we are new / too many people?) to play as a one-shot, mainly because we spent so long enjoying the character creation process. We were only able to play two scenes in the end! I came away from it feeling like I would have liked to have 4-6 sessions to really get to know the characters and work on the memory creation/reclamation together. All in all, mega 5 stars, thank you Rae, I loved it. Hope I can find a group that wants to play a longer “campaign” because I think that’s what will make this game glow. FWIW, I also think you could use Our Haunt as the basis for a solo or two-player - it obviously wouldn’t be the same, but it would still be a gorgeous, emotional world to inhabit and imagine a found family in for a while.
We just played this as a 6-player session at our Story Games Glendale meetup. I've played a few Belonging Outside Belonging games, and this was a real joy. I love that the facilitator contributions are the rooms of the house, and damn those playbooks are just well crafter as far as the moves and bonds and other components. We ran a few rounds of scenes and had a beautifully evocative and creepy and cute story, in time for this Halloween season. What a trick and treat!
I was also hoping to find a copy of these! The PDF mentions an online character keeper, but I couldn't find anything. If anyone has tips for running this remote, that would be great.
Is it possible to get the character sheets to print out? My physical copy just arrived and I want to play it but would like to have sheets to pass out and make it a bit easier.
Hi! I sent you an email, maybe it got lost in the haunted house ; )
"Recently I bought the physical copy of our haunt in a brick & mortar store, is it possible to download our haunt playbooks/character sheets somewhere?"

hi there, just wondering if any community copies would be released into the wild before Christmas
It’s a tough month for me without family and I’m after some good games to help cope with the holiday period. Kind regards

loving this game! I have seen a few mentions of a playkit, and character keeper, where do I locate those?

I'd like to know as well. Much appreciated if we could get an update on those :)
hi Rae, I purchased the game through DriveThruRPG and I keep seeing references to a separate “Playkit.” Where would I find that document?
This looks lika a fun game! Is there anyway you can add more community copies?
The book mentions an online character keeper — is this available yet? I can't seem to find a link anywhere. Thank you!
Hello, is there any plans for more community copies anytime soon?
Hello! I went ahead and added a free community copy for each 5 star rating we get here on itchio so!! More community copies!
(In case they run out before you can grab one, please let me know, I'll be happy to send you a personal download link!)
tysm! I was able to grab one
A very inspiring haunt! I will hack or port it to my game :)
