| | | | |
| − | ''Life~Meaning'' is a tabletop game for two to six players that blends competitive engine-building with a shared responsibility to keep the world stable. Players collect specialized 🧬''Pattern'' cards to upgrade their personal engines, while also investing in shared ⚙️''Projects'' that strengthen the table as a whole. There are ''no hidden roles'' and no betrayal. Tension comes from scarcity, timing, and competing priorities under shared world pressure. It’s a competitive-collaborative engine builder: everyone cooperates to keep the world from sliding into 🌀 ''Drift'', and each player competes to score the most by: | + | 🌀''Drift'' represents instability. |
| | + | ❤️''Support'' resists collapse. |
| | + | ⚙️''Projects'' strengthen shared structure. |
| | + | 🌟''Meaning'' rises when the system holds. |
| | | | |
| − | * maintaining 🧠''Coherence'' under pressure
| + | Meaning is not found. It is made. |
| − | * gaining ⭐''Reputation'' advantage through reciprocity and long-horizon contribution
| |
| − | * contributing to shared 🌳''Legacy''
| |
| − | | |
| − | Progress is tracked on individual player mats, but the world’s condition is shared. Unpredictable 📅''World Events'' generate 🌀''Drift'', and if instability climbs too high it triggers a penalty that reduces ''Meaning''. The game ends when the table achieves a high-level goal or the environment collapses, and the winner is the player who best integrates personal value with communal stewardship.

| − | === 🧬Pattern Cards (90) ===
| |
| − | Each 🧬''Pattern'' card shows icons only:
| |
| − | * Layer number (1–10) and Layer icon
| |
| − | * Cost (icons)
| |
| − | * Outputs (2–4 icons)
| |
| − | * One Tag icon (🧿 Boundary, ⚖️ Balance, 🦋 Form, 🧫 Membership, 🌐 Prediction, 🎯 Reinforcement, 📌 Presence, 🏛️ Social, 🌳 Story, 🌍 Stewardship)
| |
| − | | |
| − | == Layer Guidance ==
| |
| − | Layers 1–6 live mostly in your personal 🧬''Pattern Stack'' as engine parts, while Layers 7–10 show up as special effects and shared structures on the World Board. The Tag icons are the bridge. They let the full 10-layer model appear in play without needing 10 personal slots. 🧬''Pattern'' cards naturally reenact the layers via token outputs. Layer-by-layer mapping (10 layers):
| |
| − | | |
| − | *'''🧬Pattern Stack:'''
| |
| − | **🧿 Layer 1 '''''Boundary''''': Depicted as the “self vs world” foundation in your 🧬''Pattern Stack''. It supports your 🧠''Coherence'' state and your ability to operate under pressure. Mechanically, it’s your basic platform: make ☀️E (Energy) and 🔁R (Regulation) to stabilize your baseline.
| |
| − | **⚖️ Layer 2 '''''Balance''''': Depicted as the 🔁R (Regulation) economy that keeps you in range. Mechanically, it’s the loop that prevents overshoot and collapse: make ☀️E (Energy) and 🔁R (Regulation) to stay stable while expanding your engine.
| |
| − | **🦋 Layer 3 '''''Form''''': Depicted as 🧬patterns that restore structure, reduce the cost of “build/repair” contributions, and improve the efficiency of upgrading. Mechanically, Form-tagged 🧬Patterns help you contribute to ⚙️''Projects'' more cheaply and more often, and they tend to create “we-function” advantages.
| |
| − | **🧫 Layer 4 '''''Membership''''': Depicted as 🧬patterns that make you more reliable in reciprocal play and more efficient at shared work. Mechanically, ''Membership''-tagged 🧬''Patterns'' improve your 🌳''Legacy'', increase contribution credit, and reward consistent cooperation.
| |
| − | **🌐 Layer 5 '''''Prediction''''': Depicted as 🧩M (Model) generation plus 🧬''Pattern Gallery'' manipulation (peek, filter, reserve). Mechanically, this layer helps you see what’s coming and shape the offer so your engine grows with fewer dead turns.
| |
| − | **🎯 Layer 6 '''''Reinforcement''''': Depicted as 💎V (Value) generation plus “policy lock-in” effects (stable conversions, habit-like benefits). Mechanically, Reinforcement stabilizes what you do repeatedly, turning good choices into repeatable advantage.
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | *'''Effect (Layers 7): '''
| |
| − | **📌 Layer 7 '''''Presence''''': Present on a small number of 🧬''Pattern'' cards as a special icon (not a slot, not a currency). When triggered, it grants '''flex''': one-time choice effects such as “take +1 action,” “treat one token as wild for this action,” “peek and choose between two upcoming 📅''World Events'',” or “change how an 📅''World Event'' resolves.” Mechanically, Presence is your limited way to ''steer'' uncertainty instead of only absorbing it.
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | *'''World Board (Layers 8–10): '''
| |
| − | **🏛️ Layer 8 '''''Social''''' (❤️S ''Support'' + Reciprocity): Lives in the '''Support economy''' and in shared-work rules. Components: ''❤️S (Support)'' tokens, ⭐''Reputation''-tagged 🧬''Patterns/⚙️Projects'', and the ''Social'' action(s) that create, move, or spend ''❤️S (Support)''. Support is spent to help other players, reduce the friction/cost of cooperation, and to meet ⚙️''Project'' requirements, and players gain contribution credit (and sometimes points) for reciprocal support rather than pure solo efficiency.
| |
| − | **🌳 Layer 9 '''''Story''''' (Long-Horizon Credit): Lives in '''''Story''-tagged 🧬''Patterns'' and ⚙️''Projects''''' that convert repeated contributions into endgame value. Components: ''Story'' tags on cards plus the way you record “what you kept doing” (for example: counting completed ''Story'' ⚙️''Projects'' you contributed to, counting ''Story'' tags in your built engine, or counting ''Story''-linked milestones). Mechanically, ''Story'' is where consistency becomes multipliers or bonus scoring at game end, not a separate token.
| |
| − | **🌍 Layer 10 '''''Stewardship''''' (Endgame ⚙️''Projects'' + World Stabilization): Lives in the highest-tier '''''Stewardship ⚙️Projects''''' on the World Board. Components: ⚙️''Project'' prerequisites keyed to the World state (typically 🌀''Drift'' and Vital Signals thresholds), large table investment (often including significant ❤️S Support), and big point rewards plus world-level effects (reduce ''Drift'', improve/stabilize Vital Signals). Completing a ''Stewardship ⚙️Project'' often triggers the endgame or fulfills the table’s win-condition threshold.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Project Cards (24) ===
| |
| − | Each ⚙️''Project'' card shows:
| |
| − | * Layer tier (8–10 typically, but can include 6–7)
| |
| − | * Required contributions (icons)
| |
| − | * Public benefit; reduce 🌀''World Drift''
| |
| − | * Contribution credit slots (to mark who paid what)
| |
| − | * Completion point awards by rank (Top / Second / Other)
| |
| − | | |
| − | === World Event Cards (30) ===
| |
| − | Each 📅''World Event'' shows:
| |
| − | * 🌀''Drift'' increase (number)
| |
| − | * Pressure type icon (Scarcity, Threat, Uncertainty, Conflict, Damage)
| |
| − | * 🛠️''Mitigation Requirement'' (icons) that can reduce or cancel the 🌀''Drift'' increase
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Player Mats (1 per player) ===
| |
| − | '''Tracks:'''
| |
| − | * '''🧠''Coherence''''' (0–10) track
| |
| − | * '''⭐''Reputation''''' (0–10) track
| |
| − | * '''🌳''Legacy''''' (0–30) track
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''🧬''Pattern Stack'':''' 6 layer slots for building 🧬''patterns'' upward:
| |
| − | * 🧿 1. Boundary: Life Holds Itself Together
| |
| − | * ⚖️ 2. Balance: Staying In Balance
| |
| − | * 🦋 3. Form: Morphogenesis & Regeneration

| + | <br> |
| − | Reveal the next 📅''World Event'':
| |
| − | * Place it in the 📅''World Event'' slot.
| |
| − | * Its ''Drift'' increase is '''pending''' until Phase Ⓓ.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Phase Ⓑ: Pattern Gallery Refresh ===
| |
| − | Refill the 🧬''Pattern Gallery'' to 6 face-up 🧬''Pattern'' cards if needed.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Phase Ⓒ: Player Turns (2 Actions Each) ===
| |
| − | In clockwise order, each player takes exactly '''2 actions'''.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Phase Ⓓ: Stability Check (🛠️Mitigation + Apply Drift) ===
| |
| − | 1) '''🛠️Mitigation:''' The table may collectively spend tokens into the 🛠️Mitigation area to satisfy the 📅''World Event’s'' 🛠️''Mitigation'' icons.
| |
| − | 2) If the ''🛠️Mitigation Requirement'' is met, the 📅''World Event’s'' pending ''Drift'' increase is canceled (or reduced if the 📅''World Event'' says “reduce by X”).
| |
| − | 3) Apply any remaining pending ''Drift'' increase to '''World Drift'''.
| |
| − | 4) Discard all tokens in the 🛠️''Mitigation'' area back to the supply (they never carry over).
| |
| − | 5) If any ⚙️''Project'' slot is empty, refill it immediately from the ⚙️''Project'' supply deck. If you cannot refill because the supply is empty, the game will end after this round.
| |
| − | | |
| − | == Player Actions ==
| |
| − | On your turn, take exactly 2 actions. Scoring happens only through immediate track movement, plus '''🌳''Legacy''''' points awarded on ⚙️''Project'' completion.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Action 1: Acquire Resources ===
| |
| − | Take '''2 tokens total''', but they must be '''two different types'''.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Action 2: Buy a Pattern Card ===
| |
| − | Pay the card’s cost. Place it in the matching Layer slot on your mat (stack within a slot if needed).
| |
| − | * Immediately gain the card’s outputs as tokens.
| |
| − | * '''Tag Discount:''' Each 🧬''Pattern'' you own reduces the cost of future cards sharing its Tag by 1 of the token type shown by the discount icon on the card (icon-only). Discounts stack.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Action 3: Contribute to a Project ===
| |
| − | Pay any subset of the ''Project’s'' required icons and mark your contribution on the ''Project Card'' and update ''🌳''Legacy'' track.
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''Social triggers (immediate):'''
| |
| − | * If you contribute at least '''1×❤️S''' in this action: move '''+1 ⭐''Reputation''''' (max once per action).
| |
| − | * If the ''Project'' is '''Layer 9 or Layer 10''': when you contribute to it, move '''+1 ⭐''Reputation''''' (once per action).
| |
| − | | |
| − | If the ''Project'' completes, resolve completion immediately (see ''Projects'').
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Action 4: Stabilize (Fight Drift) ===
| |
| − | Spend '''❤️S''' to counter ''Drift''. Choose one:
| |
| − | * Reduce '''World Drift''' by 1 (minimum 0)
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''Coherence trigger (immediate):''' Any time you take Stabilize and spend ❤️S, move '''+1 🧠''Coherence'''''.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Emergency conversion (always available):
| |
| − | * Spend '''2× ☀️E''' to gain '''1× ❤️S'''.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Action 5: Social Touchpoint ===
| |
| − | Choose one:
| |
| − | * '''Give''' 1 token to another player. Move '''+1 ⭐''Reputation'''''.
| |
| − | * '''Request''' 1 token from another player. If they agree, move '''+1 ⭐''Reputation'''''.
| |
| − | | |
| − | No negotiation required. This is a clean reciprocity move.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Action 6: Recalibrate ===
| |
| − | On your turn, you may take this action to update either the 🧬''Pattern Gallery'' or the ''World Projects''.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ; Choose one:
| |
| − | * '''Recalibrate the 🧬''Pattern Gallery'':''' Discard any number of face-up 🧬''Pattern'' cards (from either row), then refill each row back to 6 cards.
| |
| − | * '''Recalibrate the ''World Projects'':''' Discard any number of face-up ''Project'' cards, then refill the display back to its normal size.
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''Cost:''' Add +1 ''Drift''.
| |
| − | | |
| − | == Projects ==
| |
| − | ''Projects'' are shared builds with competitive credit. Everyone wants ''Project'' completed because they stabilize the world, but players compete for point rank.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Contributing ===
| |
| − | When you Contribute:
| |
| − | * Pay any subset of required icons.
| |
| − | * Mark each icon you paid in your color (or your marker) on the ''Project’s'' credit slots.
| |
| − | * A ''Project'' may be contributed to by multiple players over multiple turns.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Completing ===
| |
| − | A ''Project'' completes immediately when all required icons are paid.
| |
| − | When it completes:
| |
| − | # Apply the ''Project’s'' public benefit (reduce 🌀''World Drift'' as stated).
| |
| − | # Award ''🌳''Legacy'' by contribution rank (below).
| |
| − | # Refill the ''World Projects'' slot during Phase Ⓓ.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ''🌳Legacy (Contribution Rank) ===
| |
| − | When a Project completes, award points on each player’s '''''🌳''Legacy''''' track:
| |
| − | | |
| − | * '''Top contributor:''' 6 points
| |
| − | * '''Second contributor:''' 3 points
| |
| − | * '''All other contributors:''' 1 point (only if they contributed at least 1 icon)
| |
| − | | |
| − | Rank rules:
| |
| − | * Rank is determined by the number of icons you paid into that Project (credit marks).
| |
| − | * If tied, the player who placed the earliest mark on that Project wins the tie.
| |
| − | | |
| − | == Scoring ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | === What You Score ===
| |
| − | There are only 3 scoring sources:
| |
| − | | |
| − | * '''🧠''Coherence''''' (your 🧠''Coherence'' track value at game end)
| |
| − | * '''⭐''Reputation''''' (your ⭐''Reputation'' track value at game end)
| |
| − | * '''🌳''Legacy''''' (from completed ⚙️''Project'' by contribution rank)
| |
| − | | |
| − | Define:
| |
| − | * '''Player Track Total''' = 🧠''Coherence'' + ⭐''Reputation'' + ''🌳''Legacy''
| |
| − | | |
| − | Track caps:
| |
| − | * 🧠''Coherence'' max 10, ⭐''Reputation'' max 10. Excess gains are ignored.

| + | Meaning Band: 7 → Stable |
| − | * Alex wins by combining high Project rank performance with repeated Stabilize actions that raised 🧠''Coherence'' and protected the multiplier. That is the “hold together” skill paying off in points.
| |
| − | * Casey builds the strongest ⭐''Reputation'' profile and wins key long-horizon Projects, but loses by a narrow margin because Alex’s 🧠''Coherence'' and Project points edge survives the Drift multiplier.
| |
| − | * Brooke has a strong engine and smart end timing, but falls behind because she took fewer Stabilize actions and secured fewer top ranks on Projects.
| |
| | | | |
| − | '''Meaning Profile (from the bands):'''
| + | No Vitality below 4. |
