Dead March

In the fall of 1864 the war concluded with a desperate exchange of paranormal atrocities which devastated both sides and ushered untold evil from the outer dark. Years later the country retains little of its former glory and is plagued with intrusive horrors, but life goes on. 

Dead March is a text adventure regulated by common RPG principles. Challenges are resolved by ability checks. Disputes are settled via turn-based combat. As you move through the world you'll regenerate HP, grow hungry, and burn daylight. Every attempt and encounter is a roll of the dice – sometimes you are the roadrunner, and sometimes you are the coyote. 

Mature themes. Hyperbolic depictions of violence. Coarse language. May induce satanic panic.

This beta includes:

• The first four chapters of the main story, plus one advanced chapter.
