Crawl from the Ashes

The end of the world came for reasons both completely predictable and entirely unavoidable.

Too many rats. Not enough cheese.

In the decade-winters after the great war, humanity all but vanished. Now the survivors cower in isolated Bubble Cities. Only the bravest dare to travel through a collapsing landscape boiling with radiation and mutants. Factions fight over the burnt scraps of a better world, Old World Relics are worth more than gold, and somewhere out there your Quest awaits, but only if you are strong enough to find it on the WasteCrawl.

Designed for the One-Page RPG Jam 2022, WasteCrawl takes a deck of cards and a couple of dice and makes a world of post-apocalyptic adventure.  It's easy to learn, fun to set up, and fast to play, but deep and wide like a traditional RPG. Designed for 1-8 players (yes, you can play solo), games take 30 minutes to 2+ hours depending on your skill and fortune.

Easy to learn, fun to master. You can even use WasteCrawl to generate a post-nuclear setting for other RPGs. If you like what you see here, check out QuestCrawl, the rules-lite no-prep fantasy-adventure hex-crawl-simulator.
