This repository contains a player reference guide that consolidates all the essential rules, mechanics, and terminology for Molly House into a single, searchable document.
Additionaly, the repository contains process overview diagrams that I created to help ensure the festivity scoring and threat processes are handled correctly. I intended to make these into PDFs, but do not have the time to continue working on it for now, and want to place the informaton I compiled out in case anyone else wants to take it the rest of the way.
