Coyote & Crow is a science fantasy tabletop role-playing game by Kenna Alexander. The game was designed by a team of Native Americans from more than a dozen tribes. [1] The game is set in an alternate future of the Americas, where thanks to a natural disaster, colonization never happened. [2] [3] Coyote & Crow's setting is the metropolis Cahokia, which is based on the Mississippi River. Coyote & Crow's first expansion book, Ahu Tiiko, focuses on a murder mystery in a forest village.
