Jacob Wood, the creator, uses this RPG to raise awareness for disabled gamers. The book makes the game accessible to all players with a design sense that insures the game is easy to follow.

You are a shipwrecked character on a mystical island. You’ll work to survive as you dig through the wreckage of your ship, explore, and meet the island’s inhabitants, [S]all in the hopes of finding a way off of the island[/S]. Every direction is roll based as this RPG crosses into a type of [B]Choose Your Own Adventure[/B] style of play. Featuring a full set of rules, a form fillable character sheet, and amazing art, this solo project lets you roleplay in a unique world any time you want to. [*][B]UPDATE FROM CRAIG CAMPBELL OF NERDBURGER GAMES[/B]: "Your character sought the island out, and you're trying to prove to the island and its inhabitants that you're worthy to stay on the island. You aren't trying to leave."

It’s a historic fantasy setting starting at an almshouse during the Black Death (1347 A.D.). The disease has come, zombies have followed, and you play as a disabled individual who must navigate the disease, undead, inclement weather, and discrimination. Jacob Wood, the creator, uses this RPG to raise awareness for disabled gamers. The book makes the game accessible to all players with a design sense that insures the game is easy to follow. Using Todd Crapper’s [B][I]Vision Layers[/I][/B] and Aser Tolentino as editor, this project promises to be for every RPGer. If you’re interested, check out the campaign page for a free preview.

When I first started reporting on RPG [B]Kickstarters, [I]Pathfinder[/I][/B] settings and adventures were commonplace. Today, they’re rarer and [B]2e[/B] options moreso. There’s no judgment in that statement, but there is some excitement at seeing a new [B]PF2e[/B] option available! In this land of undead with new heritages, ancestries, and archetypes, you’ll play in a safe haven as a civil war goes on outside.
