The Game Designer's Tarot
The Game Designer's Tarot is a 92-page PDF book with detailed instructions on using 78 printable Taro cards to create compelling stories for tabletop roleplaying games. It includes information about interpreting traditional Taroot cards, creating characters and settings through card readings, engaging in deep storylines that involve the manipulation of other players' decks or even whole worlds within your game's narrative framework, as well as hidden agendas behind seemingly innocent actions by NPCs (non-playable characters). The book also covers how to make use out of these Tarot cards for more general insights and understanding of yourself through their symbolism.
