Nectar
A downloadable game
Your gender is a secret—and it must remain so.
You live in a place where gender means everything. You chose to hide your birth gender to join this community, and now the state of your reputation, relationships, and even your occupation depend on how well you deceive everyone.
Your community doesn’t look kindly upon those who take their gender into their own hands.
To play Nectar, you'll need a six-sided die, a twenty-sided die, and a way to keep a diary.
***
Nectar is a one-page solo journaling ttrpg based on the Second Guess System by William Lentz.
Many designers have used the Second Guess System to write games about transing your gender, and that's because it's perfectly suited to it. My version is an homage to Alanna: The First Adventure by Tamora Pierce, and all of the other girls-dressing-up-as-boys books I devoured as a small nonbinary child.
