HARROWING
"Harrowing" by Micro RPG revolves around characters dealing with difficult situations through resource management rather than luck or dice rolls. The game's structure is set in a series of scenes that take place between 5-7 times, each featuring an obstacle to overcome and opportunities for actions taken using resources (words). Players resist soft moves until natural breaks occur at which point the narrator starts new scenes with major changes/natural break points. If playing on Roll20 you can also download clocks as well as stakes trackers.
