Projects, projects everywhere. Kickstarter It has become an endless hotbed of board games that want to be released to the general public, but need that little financial boost. That is case of Wandering Souls with his inspiration in The Lord of the ringsBloodborne o Dragon Age: Origins.
With references of this caliber we can already get an idea of what we can expect in this dark fantasy tabletop RPG. We can play both solo and cooperatively with up to three people, being able to introduce a GM to the game. The role that we have to assume is that of a Wanderer, a kind of traveler who will travel through The Shrouded Realm. We are talking about a region that has been covered by a dense gray fog and where beasts, corruption and evil beings roam freely.
A fanzine, a basic deck of cards, and a pair of six-sided dice are all we need to play. Of course, we don’t have to finish playing every session, so you can write down the data of the character and the state of the world to resume role-playing
There is no goal better than another. Anything goes, whether lurking in the Shadow or helping others with their problems. The combats have mechanics as simple as if we get a number higher than the difficulty of the enemy, we do damage; otherwise, we suffer it. The variety of attacks ranges from melee, ranged, or even magic against your enemies, each with their own strengths and weaknesses.
“You can use Wandering Souls as a writing tool or world building exercise for your own means and games”, explain its creators. It is very easy to generate templates of characters, places, events, encounters and beings so that the work adapts to our tastes. For now, the collection obtained is 985 dollars and the The objective is to exceed 2,428 dollars to make the project a reality.
