As I'm reading through the Player's Guide, I am having various flashbacks throughout my real life, as if seeing myself as a character in a game.  This game does have a focus on Empathy, Compassion, and Understanding other's perspectives.  I wonder if this game may in fact be therapeutic which may ultimately help to heal buried traumas that Players have ignored within themselves?

I do know through the many years of role playing, that you can tell quite a bit about a Player's personality by the types of characters that are played.  This game seems to touch of emotional nerves, so as I'm reading this set of rules and formulating a good plot to try this game out with, having an extremely open-minded group of players who are comfortable with feeling vulnerable, and having the courage to confront potential self-nastiness (aka internalized trauma) would be absolutely critical for the success of any game using this system.

I'll report back after I've completed reading the Player's Guide, and perhaps either the MC Guide or perhaps even the Creator Guide.
