Hello again, gamers, and Happy Holidays. Nothing quite says winter solstice like a nuclear winter. At least, that is the case in the newest game in the One Page series!
One Page Apocalypse is a game I started working on around the same time as One Page Dungeon. However, I knew I wanted it to have a little bit more depth and complexity than One Page Dungeon, due to the fact that zombies, vampires, urban settings, and apocalypse fiction are all in my top favorite genres. I love fantasy, but it doesn't hold a candle to how much I adore urban/modern horror. (I blame books, tv, and movies from the late 90s and early 2000s).
In any case, I am thrilled to finally bring you the first of hopefully many entries in the Apocalypse version of this system. And hopefully the beginnings of a lot more in-depth games like I've never done before.
Some of the new things in this book include:
- Rules for creating your own "home base" as either part of a survivor's compound or as a lone wolf.
- Rules for infection and cold. Try to stave off illness and death as long as possible.
- Rules for Mutations! How will the radiation of nuclear winter change you?
- And FINALLY a short list of rules for converting the system to multiplayer.
Welcome to One Page Apocalypse, a simple and easy role-playing-game for the solo player. You only need some printer paper, dice, and a pencil to play, making it perfect for a plane ride, hotel room, or anywhere else. The game works with a procedurally generated game map, adding some randomness to the game.
This first volume marks the opening to Season 1 of the game--set in chilling nuclear winter where radiation turns any dead bodies into zombies. This season builds on the absolute basics of the One Page System (used in One Page Dungeon and One Page Cthulhu) and updates it for a modern horror setting.
Each volume will build upon the last, offering new snowy and frozen buildings and locations to explore in each entry--along with new horrors, mutations, and class options as well. Each entry stands alone, so no need to worry about playing them in order!
So, get ready to survive the apocalypse!
You can buy the first entry NOW for only 50 cents on DriveThru RPG. OR you can wait for the paperback copy coming soon!
