Ashes and Silence

Ashes and Silence Ten years ago, the world ended — not with a sudden blast, but with the long, grinding death of nations, borders, and trust. The Global War left no victors. Only survivors. You are one of them. Chronicle the daily struggle to stay alive in a world that forgot what life meant. Food is scarce. Disease is rampant. The weather turns against you, and strangers rarely offer help without a price. Using a standard deck of playing cards, a six-sided die, and your wits, you will: Face hard choices about shelter, food, health, and morality. Encounter threats ranging from armed scavengers to the slow death of exposure. Fight off injury, infection, and the creeping despair of isolation. Decide who — or what — you are willing to become to see another day. No zombies. No mutants. No forgotten technology to save you. Only the brutal truth of a future we may yet inherit. Survival is not guaranteed. Hope is optional. Your story begins.
