"Cabin in the Wood" but for Hallmark Movies.

(A Tabletop RPG)


Ever wonder why all those Hallmark Movies are so formulaic? Well, there's a reason for that! A huge, cosmic, reality-shattering reason! The Love Gods demand Love! And only you can maintain the ritual!

Trite and True! The Saccharine Sacrifice!

"Love for the Love Gods" is a queer collaborative comedy storytelling game about tweaking the delicate balance of corny kitsch. Too much affectionate chemistry, the ritual fizzles. Those enemies never become lovers? The Gods' Fury Cometh!

Like “The Truman Show”, characters are living through a manicured and manipulated experience on an elaborate set. They are ever watched by The Love Machine, or simply, The Machine: the vast shadowy international organization seeking to shape, with scalpel and hammer, the fate of those within.
 
Why? BECAUSE THE LOVE GODS DEMAND LOVE.

TENETS OF THE LOVE GODS
Post-structuralism
We work to actively critique heteronormativity, exposing and breaking down traditional assumptions that sexual and gender identities are presumed to be heterosexual or cisgender.
(Are the gods good or bad?)

Queer love that isn’t tragic
This is not a game about forbidden love or horrific loss. Queer love stories should be able to be as boring and escapist and revelatory and as heteronormativity itself.
Queer and gender are more than who you are or are not attracted to.

Only YOU can Beget the Gimmick!
Why? BECAUSE THE LOVE GODS DEMAND LOVE.
