280 Steps Home
280 Steps home is a solo journaling game / creative writing experience that fits on a business card. You inhabit the role of an amnesiac Wanderer who's been teleported into another universe, and has to find their way back via new worlds created based on their portal device's media feeds. Eventually enough memories will resurface to lead you home... but what will you find when they do? To play you'll need: - The game - Access to a device (phone, tablet, computer, etc) - 1 six-sided die (1d6) & 1 10-sided die (1d10), or some other way to generate equivalent random numbers (online dice roller, etc) - Something to write with - Your imagination!
