Rosetta The Lost Language

While we get to carry Story Machine Games forward, we have had our share of conversations about folks around the world wishing they could get to the full game. Well, with all blessings and support in order, here it is: The print-and-play demo as well as a few bucks down for the whole thing, including the Stars & Streets unreleased promo pack. We want to bring this back into print with all sorts of new stuff, but hey, this is a stepping stone. The original description is also below:

Rosetta: The Lost Language is a co-operative judgement game for two or more players.

In the game, players take on the role of experts who try to understand the written language of the author, a player who represents a lost individual, community, or civilization. The author assigns meaning to an inscription that is written in a fictional script, and the experts must figure out what that meaning is. The experts choose a word as a guess, and the author translates it into the given script, informing their understanding of the writing system. This goes back and forth until the experts give a word that is translated into the original inscription. The number of guesses represents a score, with players seeking the lowest score possible.
