Folie à Deux

a 2-player rpg of duels and codependency

Folie à deux, or 'madness of two'—a term for a shared delusion between two people. This game captures the push and pull of a codependent relationship between the Bride, who lives as a token in a battle of power and control, and the Knight, a hero who wants to protect others and become an ideal.

Each of them also plays another force in the world: the Knight also plays the Prince, the representation of power, authority, and ideals, while the Bride additionally plays the World and the pressures and suffering thereof.
