As the Crow Flys

A solo journaling game.

Get to know your tea in a new way.

This game offers an opportunity to follow your tea wherever it may take you whether that ends up being an elaborate story or some imagery that gives a bit of insight into the feeling of the tea. See your tea from a bird’s eye view.

If you are the meditating type, I would recommend a short meditation before sitting down to play so your mind is more open for what the tea wants to show you.

If you are unfamiliar with steeping styles let me give some short explanations.

Gong fu cha: A Chinese steeping practice focused on shorter steep times(sometimes seconds long), but multiple steeps. The youtube channel Tea House Ghost茶館鬼 is a great resource to learn more.

Western Style: This is what most people are familiar with. Steeping tea usually for 2-5 minutes in a tea cup/pot and doing about 1-3 steeps before the flavor fades.

This game is intended for teas that can be steeped multiple times. It unfortunately doesn’t work as well with a latte style tea that you get to the end of and cannot resteep.

Hope you have a nice time drinking tea!
