Letters to the Stars: An Epistolary RPG
A tabletop roleplaying game about adventure in deepest space.
Designed by W.M. Akers—creator of Comrades, Lost Ship, and Deadball: Baseball With Dice—Letters to the Stars is a powerful story generator about maintaining relationships in the face of unfathomable distance. Combining the convenience of a solo RPG with the magic of tabletop roleplaying, its simple rules will inspire you and your friends to tell tales you’ll never forget.
The rulebook is jammed with bright, inviting color—think old school X-Men—with images drawn from my relentless scouring of the public domain. The rules are laid out with clarity and precision, making it an excellent resource for new and experienced players alike. It includes:
All the rules you need to play
Countless examples of the game in action
A guide to character creation, including robust tables of names, traits and vibes
Suggestions for rewriting the rules and hacking the game into other settings
Instructions for writing semi-random scenarios
A single-player scenario: "The Star Corridor"
A comprehensive index
Absolutely no filler
