Hi! This game looks so stunning, omg! Are any more community copies available? Would love to play this, but I'm a bit tight on funds this month. :( I'd definitely leave a review, rating, and spread the word to my other solo rpg pals to show my support and gratitude!
hi there fabulous creator. Just curious if there’s any more community copies available? I really appreciate game creators like you who do generously offer these community copies to people going through a hard time. It really helps out.
Hey, is it possible I could get a more concrete understanding of the game somewhere? I want to have a general idea of how the system works, without spoiling the exact mechanics. I'm a long-time D&D player, and I'm looking for something lower-key (and more fun) to play with my friends who are fun nerds but haven't played a ttrpg before, and I heard Wanderhome is perfect for folks who are not interested in playing D&D, which is all of us at this point.
Edited to add that reading up on the "No Dice, No Masters" ruleset helped a great deal with this. Reading comprehension is a difficult skill for me at times, apologies.
Wanderhome brims with deep joy, the kind that can hold wonder and awe and even grief. Every playbook is an invitation to experience a different kind of journey, some who seem to dance in light and others trudging out of darkness. In this world, violence and heroism are flip sides of the same coin, and neither are welcome or even allowed.
Playing Wanderhome requires a table who commit to being kind and sharing, which doesn't mean being gentle or boring. Without a GM, every player can and must add challenges to the world. Wielding that responsibility requires deep trust that your fellow players can catch what you throw. Despite its cozy aesthetics, the game requires you to put forth serious emotional effort.
I've played this with friends, and I've played it as a bedtime routine with my kids, and I've played it as I dreamed myself to sleep. It's not hyperbole to say that this game changed my life.
Long time reader, first time player. So much joy when my partner and I had our first Wanderhome session last night! A haunted veteran and a bright-eyed young dancer who reminds her of the people she knew in darker times...I am excited for the sweetness and sorrow of their adventures both!
I love how this game encourages so much creativity, and keeps surprising players even without any 'true' random elements. The highlight was improvising the plot of an entire play when the duo attended a community theatre production. I definitely didn't see that coming when we were picking out natures for a new location!
I recently got the chance to play Wanderhome and it is a wonderful, wonderful game that evokes the feeling of a hot mug of cocoa on a cold winter evening.
Even reading through the book (which I do more than I should admit) is a treat.
Wanderhome designer Jay Dragon and book designer Ruby Lavin added a deeply insightful annotated version of the game, one which not only provides fascinating insights into the layout and construction of the text, but also makes explicit a lot of history that was originally obscured. In order to organize these lore tidbits, I’ve taken it upon myself to construct a theoretical timeline of the Haethlands, divided into three, very loosely-defined Ages.
I just played my first session of Wanderhome at Gary Con this past weekend and was absolutely blown away. The group I played with told a truly touching and moving story together that I'm not likely to forget for a long, long time. What an excellent game!
I was about to be sad that I couldn't afford this, but turns out I own it from a previous megabundle. Aaaaa I'm so happy! I'll for sure have to try this game out. It looks so cozy!
i got the pdf in june and then just got the physical copy for christmas and this game is genuinely actually one of the coolest things i've ever seen! i have read it countless times and played it once (planning to do a campaign over the summer tho) and it's changed the way i think about storytelling and got me into ttrpgs
thank you so much jay and everyone else who worked on this !!!!! 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖

I suggest watching an actual play, there are plenty out there :)
Plus, in the book itself, every step of the game is accompanied by an example of play.
This is a life-giving game. Everything about it is beautiful, special, and so inhabitable. I want to play for the rest of time!
hi there, just wondering if any community copies will be available soon. Many thanks
Halo, is it possible for us to get more community copies? Would love to play the game after seeing the demo
thank you!
