HOST: Until the Light Takes Us
HOST is an exciting solo experience for fans of tabletop RPGs and post-apocalyptic settings, where a mysterious traveler's journal entries are played out across three randomly chosen events that allow players' characters meaningful interactions with the world falling apart around them.Hosst (pronounced "host") is a soliloquy game set in an apocalyptic future brought about by climate change caused by human activities such as deforestation, pollution and carbon emissions. Players take on roles of journal keepers who record their experiences across three randomly chosen events that represent different stages of the apocalypse: The Event I represents ecological disaster at its peak; the second event is a post-apocalyptic city landscape in ruins where people scavenge for food amid destruction wrought by nuclear war or an asteroid impact. Finally, the third and final part takes place after humanity has become extinct due to global warming caused by massive deforestation during this same apocalypse: The Event II represents what's left of urban landscapes with abandoned infrastructure such as skyscrapers now covered in weeds that grow rapidly from melted ice caps beneath them; only a few surviving pockets remain scattered about the world.The game can be played solo or group, and it requires minimal setup to record your journal entries onto cards using an envelope system which works by peeling off
