In the Belly of the Whale
A group of people in 1641 finds itself trapped inside a gigantic whale beneath the sea. Gathered around an oil lamp, the swallowed characters try to pass the time while uncertain alliances and rivalries emerge. Each player portrays one of the people inside the whale and helps reveal what brought them there. The game focuses on discovering the characters’ histories and relationships as they wait in their strange, confined home.
