NovelFarerMarket under the overpass: an AI post-apocalyptic text RPG
Twenty years after the fall. An old radio that suddenly picks something up.
How your story begins
Overpass MarketYou stand beneath the old overpass at the market where you trade scrap, twenty years after the fall; beyond its concrete ribs, the city spreads in patched roofs and cookfire smoke. You are Ash, a scavenger who has made a living carrying what can be found and trading what can be spared. This morning, an old radio on a stall sputters awake, its cracked speaker spitting a voice through the market’s barter calls.
Your first move: tap one, or type your own.

No account, no card. Your first five turns start at once.
How it plays
Real dice
When it gets risky you throw a d20 yourself. The game shows what you need and what is at stake.
Danger that ticks
Threats grow as time passes and when you fail. When the clock is full, the consequence stays.
A world that remembers
Your items, money, wounds and the map are kept by the rules, not by the storyteller's memory.
People with a memory
Who trusts you, who owes you, whose patience runs out: it counts when you try to persuade them.
