I played Gentleman Bandit by Allison Arth and I'm gonna post the resulting poem here.

Gentleman Bandit is a solo poetry rpg where you play a bandit known for leaving poetry behind after you kill someone. The core mechanic involves drawing cards to prompt the motif (theme) and matter (topic) of each line. Write thirteen lines, ride off into the sunset.

I played Your Poetry Will Be Remembered For Countless Generations. It's a poetry writing game played over a week where you roll on tables to give your poet a context in which they're writing. The game is inspired by the poetry of Yang Wang-Li (1127-1206) and based on my playthrough, I'd say it successfully evokes that vibe.

Does anyone have a rec for books/articles/other media on the history of Singapore?

Conversely, do you have any books/articles/etc that I should avoid?

I want to cast a broad net so any recs welcome
