Uncle Gordo's House

And they are going to cause a lot of problems.

I don't know how balanced or playable this game is but it's full of ideas and has a hell of an atmosphere! Reading it made me think of Tom Waits's “What’s He Building?” de Tom Waits and Roald Dahl's “The Sound Machine”…
Thank you! Balance wasn't a consideration - in a game like this that's a social contract issue - but lots of people have played and enjoyed it. It's pretty unstructured, so adjust your expectations accordingly! I hope you get a chance to give it a try, the wonderful things your friends come up with are always really delightful. - Jason
Page 4: Practical or Talented. Then on page 5 it asks if you're Practical or -Gifted-
Needs a proofreading run again
