Damwain Games is the place to find the structured freeforms, narrative RPGs, story games and game poems written and designed by queer game designer Ash Griffiths. Ash has been involved in the promoting and running of structured freeforms since the late 2000s and published their first game, "What You Wish For", in 2011. They tend to focus on highly emotional, but also highly realistic games, that allow players to just get lost in their character for a couple of hours.
