Remnants - A Record of the Broken World

You wander a landscape of ice and snow, searching and scavenging among the remnants of the world that was.  In a broken ruin you find a treasure – a blank notebook, pages clean and open, waiting for a story to be told...

What will yours be like?

You are journeying through the Broken World - a landscape decimated by a war between two giant, alien races.  They were huge and mighty and full of wrath, fighting and dying across our world for years, but at last they moved on.  Our broken world is bleak, but is beginning to recover, and as you travel you will find moments of hope as well as fear.

Remnants is a solo journalling game where you are a traveller in the frozen landscape of the Broken World, recording your wandering in a journal.  You draw cards to receive prompts for each journal entry, establishing what you saw, or felt, or found that day.

To play, all you need is the game zine, a standard deck of playing cards (including jokers), a coin (though the coin is optional) and something to write on.

Remnants - A Record of the Broken World was created and written by Matt Beames, with artwork by Jenna Beames and layouts by Hannah Torrance.  Remnants was part of ZineQuest 5 on Kickstarter, and this edition of the game was made possible by 147 backers.
