I read the rules to the critically acclaimed The Quiet Year and ... it seems extremely vague.
You're not supposed to use words on the map, but no particular alternative is provided. I know the game is supposed to be an exercise in working together when communication is limited, but what if player's aren't on the same page about what something on the map literally means?
Early in the book it says "we don't embody specific characters", but later you can discard a Contempt token "to act selfishly". What does that mean if you don't have a self?
There may be an amazing game / experience hiding in here, but I don't feel that the rulebook communicates it.
