I'm glad to see this card was included in the Tiny Library booster pack. I don't know why it wasn't well rated in the jam. I really like it - it's both a tiny solo game, as well as a useful mechanic you can plug into other games.
This is clever, and an interesting combo of adventure seed + whole new mechanic that still works for any system (or even as a stand-alone game)! I love the way the yes/no questions fit fear/will merely by saying yes or no (although I'd argue that, in some circumstances, saying you wouldn't change what happened could be considered a statement of will; but if you wouldn't change it, then maybe you shouldn't come back to life because doing so would undo the sacrifice!). And I LOVE the idea of creating a character, a funny death, and then explaining why they'd say yes or no to the questions rather than coming up with the answers and then explaining it. It's like solo improv!

Thank you very much for your kind words and I’m glad you enjoy it! :) I am happy it made it into the booster pack as well.
