A downloadable journey game

In the forest, you can wander and find

Old friends and strange treasures.

In the forest, you can take your time

Before it's taken from you.

Letter Bearer is a short solo role-playing and world-building game in which you carry letters for mighty and regal Powers through the Forest you call home, about the dull work you do, the detours you could make, and the punishments your life costs you before you have a chance to break free.

To play this game you'll need a standard deck of playing cards, a writing implement, and a stack of index cards, among other things.

This game was so fun to play! I'm super new to these types of games and this one really made me eager to play more. (It also made me want to write a short story centered around my Letter Bearer.)

Anyways, I loved it <3

Thank you so much! I actually have a similar mostly-multiplayer game in the works (in fact, Letter Bearer was a shorter game made based off of that one). The playtest version should come out this month, or early next.
