Identify kind of descriptive role playing game for self-discovery There's a comic book called &quot;Knights of the Dinner Table&quot; about a bunch of rpg players.
In one issue, the only girl at the table GM's some kind of self-discovery game she learnt in her psychology class. She describes some situations and asks for details from the players, giving an example herself.
At one point, for example, she says:

Ok, so you continue your journey down your own personal path. Soon you come to a large bear! What do you do? My bear turns out to be very tame and I'm able to hand feed it and befriend it! He decides to accompany me on my journey.

At the end, she explains what each thing symbolizes:

The bear represents adversity and how you deal with it

Supposedly this is (loosely) based on a real exercise for self discovery. I would like to know more about the real exercise in which this is based, but I don't know how to start.
Any idea how this exercise is called, or how can I find more information about something similar?
Thanks.
I finally found it, apparently it's called The Forest Test

Hindrances and annoyances that take away our happiness, entrenched
fears, values ​​that govern our choices and behavior. The forest test
tries to clarify and interpret many of these issues based on the
approach from which it was designed: relational psychoanalysis.
According to this theory, our psychological suffering is rooted in
underlying issues that we must bring to light in order to heal the
hurts and move forward.
For those who have not heard about this relational test, we should
first say that it isn’t in any way conventional. The forest test
doesn’t have enough reliability and validity to be part of normal
clinical practice. However, we cannot rule out its relevance within
the context and the theoretical framework from which it was created.
It is, without a doubt, worth taking into account.
The forest test is a projective test which can reveal the fears, hindrances and deepest interests of each patient.
