Lucid Thieving

LUCID THIEVING is a whimsical tabletop role-playing game about inhuman thieves of questionable tangibility who travel the dreamscape in search of dreams to plunder.

This game is designed for 3-4 participants. One participant will be the Dreamer, a GM or Facilitator type role, and the others will take on the roles of Thieves. 

During a typical session of play, the Thieves delve into a single dream to steal its riches and face off against the dreamer's Gaze and Fears. Gameplay leans into creative problem solving and conceptual exploration.

DESIGN NOTES

Lucid Thieving was created as an entry for GAME EXPLODER - the Dice Exploder Game Jam. 

• The design of this game is inspired by Meguey & Vincent Baker’s OTHERKIND DICE. You can listen to host Sam Dunnewold and guest John Harper talk about Otherkind Dice during their discussion of the Risk Sheet from PSY*RUN in season 3 of the DICE EXPLODER podcast.
• The theme of Lucid Thieving is inspired by oneiromancy from CHANGELING: THE LOST, Second Edition.

PLAY NOTES

If you would like to play online with friends, there is a Google Sheets GAME KEEPER you can use. You will need to make a copy of the sheet to edit and you will need a copy of the Lucid Thieving pdf to play.

I consider this to be an ashcan version of the game, but it is complete and playable. There are a number of ways I can think to improve it, but I have no plans to do so at this time.

If you have questions or play the game, I would love to hear from you!
