Wickies
The game Wickies involves two lighthouse keepers, one of whom takes on the role as older keeper while younger assistant tends to a light that can be far off from their land or place they've been brought. Players must work together and maintain order in this GM-less RPG where characters take turns playing multiple roles like guard, clerk, doctor/nurse (with specialties), cook, etc., but have some basic skills set aside for later usage with other crew members when needed to solve problems as a group rather than individually or during individual downtime. The game is based on the Wrecht and Alone rules where players must work together in groups of at least 2 individuals like light keepers who are either friends, roommates before their stints started, family (brother & sister), etc., but not married with spouse/significant other present; spouses have to remain separate. The game can be GM-less or done as a group and players must manage the ship's resources which include food, water supply for cleaning wounds from battles if needed, weapons like muskets during conflicts onboard (for noncombat situations), extra clothes, rations, etc., but no money is involved in any of these activities. The game can last several months to years depending on interest and play
