What it is about
1 player | 20 - 30 minutes You, as you are, have long gone. The sands of time, vaster than all the beaches of the world, fail to capture the moments since you went. All you knew, all you have known, and all that is to come has faded into the horizon. It is a future person, a thing, a being that finds you now, or what remains, and tries to understand the meaning of your existence. You own a lot of stuff. At work, you also have more stuff, and there is stuff in your car, and in the stores you go to, and all over the ground. Lots of stuff. There is something to be said about the archaeologists of the future: They are in for a lot of junk. Or perhaps not. Take a moment with this journaling solo RPG to document and think over the function and meaning of everyday objects, presuming they barely survived the next thousand years, and see what you come up with about yourself.
