Our Queen Crumbles is a collaborative storytelling game for 2-4 players about revenge, inevitable death, and saying goodbye to those you love. It is set in the weird-fantasy land of Halloway, where the dead whisper to those who listen and the fundamental forces of nature can be bent to your will. The game is meant to be played in a single sitting, and is focused on developing interesting and dynamic characters over the course of a few hours— no matter your roleplaying experience.

Our Queen Crumbles uses a bespoke GM-less storytelling system centered on progressive character revelation— though you start the game with only a vague idea of who your characters are, each scene lets you dive into their history and personality a bit more. Players build scenes around a collection of character traits and story elements, allowing you to do on-the-fly worldbuilding alongside your friends.

Each player chooses what kind of relationship bound them to the Queen. Were you as close to her as a sibling? Did she dote on you as if you were her child, or were you the one acting as her parent? Or did you simply long to be her lover? For each relationship, you may pick between four playbooks, helping you build a strange and wonderful character over the course of your journey from an assortment of traits, items, and abilities.
