The game One Child’s Heart is a role playing game in which players take on the role of community professionals attempting to provide support to traumatized children. While this may not sound like a fun RPG to engage with, I am convinced that the world needs more like it. Games that teach empathy in a supportive setting are few and far between. In this episode I interview Camdon Wright and we discuss this amazing game. Even if you think the game is not for you, at least recognize that this is an innovation in RPGs and it can be a good infection for our gaming spheres.
