Monte Cook Games’ latest supplement for the Cypher System is We Are All Mad Here.
The setting is based on fairytales, Alice in Wonderland and English folklore in a place known as the Heartwood.
You can download a free 28-page preview by adding it to your cart at the Monte Cook Games store and going through the checkout process.

We Are All Mad Here has a whole chapter, albeit a few pages long, dedicated to the discussion of mental health in games and that chapter is included in its entirety in the free preview.
The supplement’s author, Shanna Germain, made the game’s inclusion of the critical chapter in a tweet about the free download.
