Your mission is to survey, sample, analyze, and report on the Continent, abandoned centuries ago due to radiation and environmental destruction. Using the skills of your profession determine the possibilityof re-habitation of the ancestral Continent. This is a solo mystery journaling game of scientific exploration and cartography. Based on the Hints and Hijinx System, product of Pandion Games. Research Team. Radio- Active: Survey, Sample, Analyze, Report is a solo journaling game. This game is played by yourself, by writing your actions and answering questions in a journal, notebook or word processor. Write more of your story after each step, dice roll, and card flip. Enrich your game with a map of your journey and discoveries along the way to aid in solving the mystery. This Hints & Hijinx game is split into three stages: The Setup, The Investigation, and The Deduction. Your mission is to survey and gather evidence as you explore uncharted terrain while navigating through various Challenges & Complications and gather Discoveries & Clues. You will need: Pen & Paper This book A set of polyhedral dice (D4, D6, D8, D10, D12, D20, D%) A coin (D2) A deck of playing cards – shuffled, jokers removed. Time to play: 1-2 hours Includes: Designing your Mission Patch Character Creation Weather Forecasting Field Notes Cartography, the art of map making Roll Tables & Card Draw Tables Color Photos & Art Supplemental Documents Created to be printable in A4 booklet form & stapled separately. Notes for Printing: I intend for this to be printed on regular paper and folded in half and stapled. At 64 pages I found this difficult to achieve without the proper equipment. In order to achieve the desired results, print the game booklet of 51 pages and the Supplemental Documents of 13 pages separately. I like the idea of including the documents for use, but I am not inclined to write in my books. I found this to satisfy all issues. Size & Format: Digital , Standard Printer Paper. Booklet, A4, 8.5” x 5.5” Download includes access to the following files: Research Team Radio-Active_Book PDF Research Team Radio-Active .p51 PDF Research Team Radio-Active Supp. Docs .p13 PDF Genre/Tags : Solo, Multi-Player, TTRPG, Journaling, Polyhedral Dice, Playing Cards, Map, Educational, Adventure, Science, Radiation, Nature Credits: Written, Design, Layout, Photos & Art by Wendi Kinsey This is all human created, text, photos, & art by one person, me, Wendi Kinsey.
