The Hungry Folk
Dauntless heroes and grave threats are all well and good, but a hearty meal simmering over a campfire is the true joy of adventuring. Gather a band of hungry folk (halflings, hobbits, goblins, etc) and scramble through briar and big folk alike to forage a tasty dinner! Solo or semi-cooperative, rules-lite campaign play de-emphasizing combat. Inspired by a childhood of Fellowship of the Ring on repeat, spun off from notes for my other non-combat game Care/Taker28, and drafted up for Hobby Dungeon's One Page Game Jam (last year here). With much love for the Non-Combat Tabletop discord...a better (miniature) world is possible! Zine prints okay on my printer, but you know how that goes. From the river to the sea (A)
