A downloadable game

Stories tend to follow you wherever you go, which is why you remain a myth. One day, they'll know your love follows just as close.

You are alive. Your care is drifting, obscure, and extraordinary. 

The Cryptid is a fan-made Wanderhome playbook. Play Wanderhome as a liminal creature that is neither one thing nor another, or something else equally undefinable. Discover what it means to never quite fit in, and be haunted by false impressions of your legacy while on your quest to be known as a normal person.

This also contains:

  • The Fairyland, a verdant nature where magic surges, wild and untamed.
  • The Area, a desolate nature that has no answers.
  • Tale Day, an alternate holiday where folk share stories and lore of their hometowns, and embody characters of fiction. 
  • And extra bonus stuff!

Thank you, Fisticuffs, for being the inspiration that made this playbook possible.

A wonderful supplement revolving around strangeness and storytelling! My favorite parts are the Fairyland nature and the Illusioned trait. Fairyland has some really cool tools for making the world continually stranger and stranger. And Illusioned speaks to an issue I've been thinking about a lot recently: the danger of believing things too strongly and uncritically, and the reasons why people believe anyway. There's a lot else to appreciate here but those are the parts that stood out to me!
