Hello at the time is 19:42. And I'm gonna play through my game once so that people can reference this as an actual play document. And they kind of see Oh, how does this work? What does this look like? The problem here is that my game, the third word in the title is, is made up. And when I transcribe this, it's going to, say the word carmash, or committed, which are close, but not it. So I'm going to do a kind of command F, and replace that with chicken. No, actually, I'm gonna replace it with the real word, but with Yeah, with the word I made up, but I'm gonna just say the word chicken now, because it's going to be easy thing to find and replace. But that's not how the word is pronounced. It's pronounced, Kmiyd. Kmiydish. This game is Recipe on Kmidyish paper, by Pearse Anderson and Aylin Erkan and I am excited to like spend like an hour or so playing this and have you join me. I'm on a hand voice recorder. I'm going to be walking around, I apologize for any notes for any ambience, and kind of for me blabbering on that you might not get in more of a tight end adaptation. Apparently, there are some actual play people who have booklets of everything that they say. So this is kind of like that style. Let's find out how it goes. But okay, starting here.

This is a Recipe on Kmiydish paper. Now, I've played this game a few times, all the way through already. So there's gonna be sections of this game, I will not need to reference and due to copyright usage, I will not be playing any of the music as well. So I'm going to pause through that or skip it entirely. The drawing will also be inaccessible in this actual play, maybe I will post it to my Twitter after play. And I might pause and play as the session goes on. So if there's adjustments or brakes, that is why, but I could just probably skip content and safety. I will not be playing the alternate play mode of pantry edition. And instead I will just get straight into on my copy the section titled The recipe. So I could choose between the beverage, the pastry, the meat and the preserve. I have played one game with the preserve with two games with the beverage and I think I should plays the meat to round it out. There's a lot of interesting questions of sentience and meat playbook. And I have some fun ideas I've been kind of thinking about. But it also makes me realize I never could I skipped setting and culture I need to figure out who my people are. Let me pull up Blue Kmiyd's their encyclopedia. So I could just take a look at some words. shocks but words are gonna be hard to transcribe as well. Let me pick a word. It's very easy to find and replace. But I could say Italians. No, those are real people. Let's call them the watchers. Yeah. My insular cultural group will be the watchers. I think this game I will not make them be a religious insular group. I think it's going to be

an ethnic or racial group. That We'll be defined by the Kmiydish I mean, it messes up throughout the playthrough. You know, they will very clearly delineate delineated what race and ethnicity may be their, their world and their slivers look like because they're getting more into industrialization with that standardization, maybe elements of social Darwinism, and maybe the treatment of the watchers will reflect that. So the watchers, I have been thinking a lot since I travelled to the Chicago Botanical Gardens, about rock gardens and about gardens that do not use what we would often consider living elements. And I think I want to incorporate that into this group. So maybe one aspect of their cultural identity that I should be summarizing and what to do sentences can be that the watchers spend

one hour each morning and a flotsam garden. And what I'm picturing is maybe these people come from a coastal region where there was a lot of

flotsam and jetsam washed up on a rock or rocky shore. And that was a place for reflecting on life. That was a place for reflecting on the turn and change of the world. And almost despite being a violent beach side, a meditative beach side. So now that they have immigrated to the six slivers, there's a child crying outside, I hope you can hear that, um, the watchers still bring that tradition of these kind of rock beaches and the churn and change. And maybe that's where maybe it's a garden where they put their trash and then kind of reflect on what they have discarded throughout their throughout their week throughout their life. Maybe it's a place where they do not clean the rocks. And if birds hit the walls of the courtyard and die there, they become part of the Flotsam and they let them decay naturally. I think that that could be a really fun way. And because it's an hour each morning, it delineates a kind of ritualized use of what could be a very busy time in the city. You know, I don't know if the watchers will be employed in that many bakeries because they have to, for this hour a day. It's impressed on them from a young age to come out to these flotsam gardens. And I think that's going to really tie well to choosing the meat. So let me go to that page. Three, go to meat.

Okay, take a look at some of these image qualities later. Um, you are composed with as much grace as the animal was slaughtered with thanks to a snout to tail butcher. describe them, their deli and how messy you are to prepare. Okay, I also have to add four traits two of which being ingredients. I think I should probably just start there and then circle back to the butcher who prepares us. I'm going to say us throughout this or me, who knows the meat I like um, I like brisket. I like concentrated meats, however that looks like there is this Japanese dish. Yeah, like a bow Neato. You know some kind of Usually, I mean, it would be dried into a block that amount of concentrated meat. Here it's described as fish rock, made from skipjack tuna fascinating. So I think one of my traits will be concentrated you know, prep like prep pressed in some way. And these are a coastal people do they have access to fish in Bblue Kmiyd where this game takes place? I'm going to say yes, I'm going to say they do. It's some kind of inland fish. Let me just google river fishes. Get a name from you. freshwater fish of America. Fine, whatever. trout perch. large mouth. Drum. sturgeon. I'm going to do sturgeon. I'm going to do sturgeon. Kind of throwing it back to long held and long debated Jewish concepts of sturgeon and kosher ness that feels really natural. Another ingredient maybe something is folded into Well, okay, it's, it's somehow it's processed. It's probably slow cooked. And dried. Yeah. So concentrated slow cooked sturgeon with pine needles. Yeah. Something that add kind of plant matter. smell. So that covers my traits, concentrated slow cooked sturgeon with pine needles, the, the butcher who composed us with grace. Traditionally, when I think about me, I think about land animals or you know, birds, but because of that butcher maybe applies less. Maybe this would be more kind of a fishmonger. So I'm going to as a rule, state improvise and just kind of interpret this, how, how I pleased the butcher, who is a watcher gets sturgeon from karst the karst environment of Blue Kmiyd. So this kind of karst geography means that they are hidden rivers, rivers go underground and then pop out. And although some fish can navigate those waters, well, maybe through a series of mirrors or traps or nets, they're able the watchers to harvest a lot of sturgeon and maybe secret it away caves throughout the city.
