Inspired by Borderlands, Fallout, and Mad Max, Wastewalkers is a rules-bright, solo-friendly and OSR-inspired post-apocalyptic TTRPG where you and your fellow scavengers carve out a living in the ruins of civilization. Will you become a legend of the wastes, or just another sun-bleached skeleton?
We play to find out.
Do you know about TTRPGs?! Great! Here's the nifty core mechanic that'll reel you right in:
- You roll that trusty d20 and add little modifier and try to beat a target set by the GM—easy peasy lemon squeezy!
- But wait, here's the twist! The GM reveals a handful of cards from the deck, and every time a black card pops up, the target score takes a little bump of +2!
- If you roll like a champ and succeed, you can pocket a card for later—giving exciting bonuses down the line! But you must always favor picking a red card over a black one!
- So, if you start stashing those cards away, watch out—the deck fills up with even more black cards, making your life tougher with each roll!
What's In the Box?
- Easy as pie rules ! Our TOUGH, FAST, SMART, and HUMAN attributes are simpler to grasp than hot-wiring a Chaser!
- Print-and-play pamphlet ! Just run off a copy for each survivor, and you're ready to explore the Wasteland faster than you can say "nuclear winter"!
- Solo play options ! When your fellow wanderers are busy fighting off Blighted, our handy-dandy Solo Oracle keeps the adventure rolling!
- Mix-and-match with your favorite OSR beasties ! Slap some radioactive paint on 'em, and they're ready for the Wasteland
So grab your shabby weapons, power up your engines, and get ready to ride into a world of danger and opportunity!
