  1. Afterlife Errands sounds amusing, an errand sounds less important than unfinished business so I’d enjoying see what mundane tasks are keeping your ghosts from moving on.

    1. I was thinking simple, mundane chores like having to pick up very specific items from a grocery store, having to clean different parts of a house, etc. I think that there could be different places on the board that you must travel to complete these tasks.

  2. Pirate-themed games are always fun to see, which is why I’d be willing to hear more about the shipwrecked game. I wonder what the roles would be… Buccaneer? Captain? Cannon-Handler?

    1. I’m thinking more like ordinary people get stranded on an island as opposed to pirates. So I guess the roles would more of be the characters and potentially their jobs. There would be a captain of the ship, but maybe there was also chef on the ship and that would be one of the roles.
