Description
So what’s wrong with you? I mean, you’re in here, so it’s got to be something. We’ve got all kinds—whatever flavor of crazy you’re craving, it’s on the menu. Disgruntled old vets? Paranoid royals? Flighty youths? And, of course, your standard variety vanilla loony; we’ve got plenty of those. Liars, thieves, magic-workers… and then there’s the doctors, whose fancy degrees make them better but no less crazy than you are. So what’s it going to be? Depressed? Hearing things? Magic-obsessed? Denial of reality? Delusions of grandeur? Thinking you’re somebody? Well, don’t you worry, they’ll cure you of all of that. That’s what the pills, the magic restraints, and, saints, the talking is for. But we’re a pretty good group. Crazy, they say... Maybe, but who isn’t? That’s just life. So seriously, just between us: what’s wrong with you? Last Night in Jesriah is the story of the inmates and staff of the Jesriah Convalescence Center in the Queendom of Mavella. It is a serious game with heavy Film Noir influences and a touch of dark humor, set in a magical fantasy world roughly parallel to early-20th-Century America. This game is intended for mature audiences and is not recommended for anyone under the age of eighteen. Potential triggers in this game include extended portrayals of mental illness, some similar or functionally identical to real world disorders, potential exposure to emotional or physical abuse or torture, and the DEFINITE presence of self-harm and suicide. Although characters will encounter this content to varying degrees, it is an unavoidable part of the game. If you think any exposure to the idea of suicide would be triggering or upsetting you you, we must suggest that you sign up for a different game.
