A very interesting looking roleplaying game, from creator Ted Bushman, has passed the 200% funding mark on Kickstarter. The Last Caravan: A Cars and Aliens Tabletop RPG is a post-apocalyptic setting following an alien invasion. You can reserve a copy of the game in PDF for a $20.00 pledge or score the hardcover, PDF, and more for $40.00 pledge through June 27. Expected delivery is this October.
About the game:
An RPG about a midwinter road trip in the wake of an alien invasion. “Little Miss Sunshine” meets “The Last of Us.”
In this cozy, melancholy post-apocalypse, the aliens came less than a year ago. The war lasted two months, but nobody won. Now, with an alien army rising from the ashes of war, you will have to make a dangerous journey across a shattered North America in search of a new home. You are normal people finding heroism in extraordinary circumstances. You will explore transformed landscapes, search abandoned towns, discover otherworldly technology, negotiate with newly-formed factions, outrun alien pursuers, and — and all you’ve got is a car, your fellow travelers, and the road.
