The Showoff by John W. Sheldon</figcaption> <p>Turn is a slice-of-life, rural supernatural tabletop roleplaying game for three to six people. Players are shapeshifters in a small, rural town--able to turn into animals like raccoons, cougars, and bears. They must balance their human lives and habits with their beast lives and instincts, while pursuing acceptance and community with other shifters - and with the mundane humans and beasts that populate the town. <br></p> <p class="text-center"><a href="https://www.ceciliaferri.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" referrerpolicy="origin"><img src="https://img.itch.zone/aW1nLzQ5NjUzOTguanBn/original/btnlIC.jpg" alt="Beasts communing" title="Beasts communing" loading="lazy"></a></p> <figcaption>Shapeshifters can comfort each other.
