Ambrosia Bartering
Some rules for a game that doesn't exist, set in a world that hasn't been imagined. Ambrosia Bartering was an idea mulling about in my mind for a while, that had the opportunity to escape without the context of a broader piece of work. It is the economic rules for a people who's wealth is measured in a powderous substance called ambrosia. It mixes traditional coin counting with abstract currency while adding a pinch of worldbuilding. This is all thanks to the System Fictional Game Jam hosted by David H. K. Jackson, Rhea, and W.H. Arthur.
