Born of Cold
Born of Cold is an asymmetric storytelling game for 2-4 players that follows a group trying their best against one another and creating hazards through various roles, set up as antagonists or supporting characters with different rulesets to interact among themselves while telling compelling stories related to the original fairy tale The Snow Queen. The Cursed: Our protagonist who must scale winter terrain despite facing opposition from an unseen villain manipulating his fate; they employ a unique system of dice and moves that affect one another in unpredictable ways, creating suspense for players involved with their story's outcome. Winter King/Queen (Supporting Character): Manipulates the minds to create hazards along path through forest or ice formations blocking journeyers' progress. They are aided by minions acting as allies who may thwart enemies attempting escape from frozen wilderness areas caused by Winter itself, adding a layer of complexity and unpredictability in their story's progression. Forest: The supporting cast that creates animals serving the cursed on journeys to aid them through snowy mountains or treacherous forests where snow-laden trees threaten anyone trying too far ahead; they employ spells (similar mechanics as Hell Cabin) for magical effects like summoning help from creatures dwelling within forested areas, adding an exciting and unpredictable element in their story's outcome.
