Was a pleasure presenting my talk on Making Your First Jubensha at the IEN Summit earlier this week!
So many people said such wonderful things about it, and it really feels like this genre is finding its audience and its creators in places like IEN :)

Jubensha Haul!!!
It amazes me that this is still basically the entirety of this genre written in the English language, and I’m fudging a bit here with Alice is Missing
So glad that we’re making more so this scripted mystery game phenomena can reach more audiences outside of China and Singapore :)
