Designed to be played through the mail/post, AdventureByMail games have two players using regular playing cards as prompts as they write and send correspondences as spies, vampires, interstellar explorers, and more. Players do not draw prompts from their own deck. Instead, with each letter they send, they'll enclose a playing card to lead their partner's reply. No GM needed.
Downloads includes a two-sided 8 1/2x11 trifold guide to play the game. Both you and your partner will need a copy of the rules (no need to purchase twice, just send the pdf to the other player), a six-sided die, a deck of regular playing cards, paper, postage, and envelopes.
For a single player solo variant, simply create the deck as instructed, follow direction for the opening entries and play as though keeping a journal as your character. You can add in additional cards for longer games if desired.
