The one you love is dead. they’ve gone below, to the Underworld.
Death needn’t be the end. They left you a mixtape, and as long as you have that – as long as you’re listening to the songs that bound you together, which became the story of your relationship – they can’t really die.
And you’re not some nobody, fated to lie down and take this.
You’re a Muse’s child.
With your music you make the stones weep and the gods kneel down before you.
You’re getting them back.
One More Song is a storytelling game that uses a playlist of songs to randomly determine how each scene plays out. It’s a way of telling the story of Orpheus, the son of a Muse who used the magic of his music to convince Hades, the god of the Underworld, to let Orpheus bring his bride, Eurydice, back to life.
One More Song splits the story into a sequence of scenes, each with a few questions and journalling prompts to get you started. Most of the variability, the surprise – the game – comes from setting each scene to a single song that you’ll use to fill out the details. You don’t need to know the story to enjoy this game. The prompts and the playlist will guide you in telling a story about going to impossible lengths to save someone you love.
No dice. Just songs.
