A game about historical lumberjacks in the 19th century. It’s a game about men who leave their homes for months at a time to support their families with the only job they could get. They would cut timber in the chill of fall, the frozen winters, and treacherous spring. It’s a game about the people who did this dangerous work, the price they paid, and the bonds built in those remote cabins. |

You play semi-famous science fiction authors living in late 196Os California. The game's inspired by the lives of people like Philip K. Dick and L. Ron Hubbard. Left Coast is a game for 2-4 players that involves some co-GMing. It's designed to promote a relaxed exploration of character and setting, with the occasional pretentious flash of meta-narratives, post-modernism, and nuttiness.
