About the Game

Archives of the Fallen World is a PnP Solo Strategy Board Game set in the final days of a collapsing dystopian town.

The core game tells the story of Leon, a former librarian. As the world collapses, he collects books to preserve the last pieces of human knowledge in his underground shelter. Your goal is to help Leon collect 32 books by completing various quests across 12 locations scattered throughout the town.

Solve quests, trade, steal, or search the ruins - there are many ways to recover the books. But beware! The streets are patrolled by local militia, and every time you get too close, you get into trouble and lose Faith- a precious resource that keeps your morale high and can be spent on risky or questionable actions.

Every day is a fight for survival. Your character needs food to stay active. Earn money to buy it, volunteer at the community garden, search the ruins, or dig through rubbish bins - do whatever it takes to eat, or lose a large part of your daily energy. And every night, the bombs fall. Buildings collapse, quests disappear, and time runs short. The longer you wait, the fewer opportunities remain. Plan your routes carefully. Use your energy wisely. Balance between growing hunger and fading hope.

You have 12 days before the doors of your bunker close.
