I enjoyed playing this so much -- thanks for sharing your game! The design was incredibly inspiring in its simplicity & elegance.

Thank you so much! I am really glad you enjoyed it. 

Well what a lovely game. I really enjoyed the set up and the way the prompts worked. It was a good balance of story setting and freedom to create and imagine. Thank you

Thank you so much! I'm so glad you enjoyed playing it :)

The layout is so clear and the setting beautifully conveyed in the short texts and tables. Can't wait to get it to the table and deliver some mail. Good work Jane!

Is there any chance of getting a version with a white background instead of mottled grey?  It would be easier to read and more printer friendly.

Hey, of course, I've just added both a colour and a black and white version without the backgrounds that should be more suitable for printing. Hope that helps! I hope you enjoy the game :)

That looks great.  Thank you!

Beautiful layout, presentation and it's really a marvelous premise and good game! I love it!

Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy it
