Description
in digital, pdf format
Had we but World enough, and Time,
This coyness, Lady, were no crime.
We would sit down, and think which way
To walk, and pass our long Loves Day.
-Andrew Marvell, To His Coy Mistress
The Time Traveler's Life is an RPG created using the Second Guess System first used in games like One White Eye and The Date. Here, the system of impending dread and self-deception is instead tweaked and expanded into a two player (duo) game that explores the uncertainty of a relationship between a time traveler and their significant other who experiences time in the standard, linear manner. Here, the system is expanded to two pages so that both the Time Traveler and the Significant Other get their own single page playbook and semi-interlocking prompts that can show players a whole new way to Twist events as each player experiences their character's life in a different order.
All you need are a d20, a d6, and something to record your journal entries on. Sometimes people surprise you.
