Astronomical is a 2-player, letter-writing RPG zine played with dice and cards. In it, players explore relationships between people separated on distant planets. The game comes with two A6-sized 8-page zines.
This is also a Press Pot Games RPG Zine reprint campaign. By backing this, more copies of Our Innermost Thoughts, this world is not yours, the Portal at Hill House, and Reunification will be available.
The galaxy is an enormous space, devoid of heat and mass. While many star-crossed lovers desperately want to be reunited, others who crave solitude are content simply being by themselves.
In Astronomical, each player receives their own 8-page zine. While many of the rules are the same, the outcomes, prompts, and idea generating are specific to the zine. By using a table, 12 six-sided dice, a deck of cards, and some sticky notes or index cards, players use the zines to explore the relationships across distant galaxies.
Step One: Grab your Zine
Step Two: Roll Dice
Step Three: Follow the rules of die selection and prompt-writing
Continue until all 12 dice have been chosen and written about, then discover the fate of these worlds.
This is also a Press Pot Games RPG Zine reprint campaign. By backing this, more copies of Our Innermost Thoughts, this world is not yours, the Portal at Hill House, and Reunification will be available. While Portal remains mostly in stock, the others don't. In order to produce larger print runs, I thought this would be a good way to 1) raise the funds to print and 2) get more of these titles into the world.
