A story-telling game of survivalist horror at the end of everything. Lonely World is survivalist horror. Every day, it was on the news. Front page in the paper. Internet couldn't shut up about it. Every day, new stories, new pictures, new first-hand accounts. At first from across the world, then in isolated cases in some major cities here at home. And every day it got closer and closer to you.

A rules-lite RPG based on "Inception". Players portray highly illegal con men who steal information from unsuspecting people while they sleep. The Mechanic uses the diceless tension building of a Jenga tower. This tower represents the stability of The Dream. The Dream takes place in The Architects mind (one of the PCs), and he controls all of it. He can alter the weather, the physics, the landscape and the buildings. |
