When the Stones Spoke

In the valleys of the cold mountains separating two arctic towns, legends warn that voices will cry out at night, revealing your deepest held secrets. It’s here we find Ellis — on his way to mourn the death of a childhood friend, stranded at a once familiar community who are hostile to his trans identity, with a valley between him and his destination. He was alone, and it was night.

When the Stones Spoke is a short, turned-based role-playing game that explores the challenges of returning to a childhood home that no longer accepts you, reconciling your past with the person you are now, and what you remember about events and places being altered by time and wisdom.
