Description
A lonely road stretches in front of you, its point disappearing in the misty horizon. You are its companion, someone with a wandering soul, a desire to keep moving. The road will lead you to new places, each time different. Together, you and the road will set off on new adventures. Where will this lonely road take you?
A Lonely Road is a solo RPG, a meditative, surreal hack of Takuma Okada’s Alone Among the Stars. You are not in space – you are on foot, following a path, exploring a slightly stranger version of our world. As you travel, your dice rolls and playing card draws will determine what kinds of places you discover. In your journal, keep a record of your journey and the curious things you’ve found along the way.
A dusty motel room off route 75 decorated entirely with owls.
A museum collecting belongings of people who don’t yet exist.
A takeaway store 25 kms from the last town that sells only cold food on Wednesdays.
Strange rock formations scattered over a field that remind you of household objects.
- Requires a deck of playing cards, 2 d6 dice, and a way to record your journey
- Perfect for whenever you’d like a quiet escape
- A6 size, 14 pages, full color
