It Has Always Been This Way

User summary: The game is for exactly three players. Each player receives a single-page character description and play proceeds. Each character has variable goals and options, though essentially the game is a free-form narrative excursion. The characters are Hero (a townsperson, and the protagonist); Sickle (god of agriculture), and Wild (trickster god). The game is distributed as a ZIP archive including eight files - four PDF and four text. Each pair of PDF and text files contains the same data. The four files of each set include a brief introduction and three character descriptions.
