Description
Welcome to Lemuria, explorer. Many like you have come to these recently discovered lands in search of riches to spoil, knowledge to gain, or to escape their turbulent past.
In your pockets you have all the money you could get by selling what you had, and this old sketchbook. Before you left, you promised you would fill it with a tale of your adventures.
Dreadfarer is a cosmic horror solo journaling RPG. In an alternate-past early 20th century, throw yourself into an uncharted land on the hunt for treasure. Choose your origin and mount your expedition – manage your provisions, guard your health, and record what you find. Otherworldly, abandoned cities. The backward bones of eldritch creatures. Trees made of bleeding meat. Artifacts from ancient civilizations, still-imbued with untold power. Lemuria is wondrous – and dangerous. Traverse the land and the land will change you, a curse for the rest of your days. Can you make it back and reap the rewards? Or will you die and pass your sketchbook on to someone new?
Game boasts evocative cover-to-cover art from surreal horror extraordinaire Valdevia. It also includes a rich tapestry of things to discover – locations, items, NPCs, encounter tables, and more – as well as a mysterious cypher hidden within the game’s very pages.
