 Reunion is a  relatively tight game, and players will get the most out of it if they directly engage with the core plot and themes. In addition, players may find that their actions get wrapped up in a wider whole even if they thought they were doing their own thing. Player versus player conflict is expected to form part of this game, but we don't anticipate a high character ​ turnover. Reunion is a  relatively tight game, and players will get the most out of it if they directly engage with the core plot and themes.
