conversations.value: You always thought it was just so cliché . The whole "trapped in an elevator" shtick was something that was supposed to only happen in romcoms and cheesy novels. Yet, here you are. Stuck in a mega-mall elevator. As if that wasn't bad enough, the elevator is an artificial intelligence consciously holding you hostage. Yes. That's right. A temperamental elevator, interrupting your consumer experience. You always wondered why your grandmother was so grouchy about AI being conveniently installed in every pen and floor tile. Now you know.
  
  What you don't know is that the problem is much bigger.
     
     
     
  Hey guys, welcome to Elevation! Set about a century into the future, imagine a world full of gizmos and gadgets and robots and all the other scifi bells and whistles. Yes, your car flies, just like in the Jetsons. AI's are pretty common place, but really don't possess genuine personality, as far as your character knows. Tone-wise, I'm going to shoot for a comedic scifi thriller, so we'll see how that goes!
  
  I'm hoping to get maybe 3-4 players and we'll be taking it slow to start with, since this is my first time narrating.
  
  Feel free to make your own cards! I made some default ones, but I'd really love to see what you guys come up with!
