You can be a highly experienced RPG gamer or have little to no experience at all to enjoy our games. Science fiction, fantasy, mystery and horror are all presented with the whimsy, grit and improvisational openness you can expect from Adventures in Cardboard.
Players will meet with their group for 5 - 10 sessions in real time to play an entire story as characters in another world. The Game Master will serve as the player's eyes, ears and senses describing to you and your band of adventuring friends everything that is happening around you. You will make decisions and change the story based on your actions, your success, your mistakes, your failures.
Thrilling adventure, terrible risks and astounding rewards await you! If you survive and level up you can look for sequel games for your character and advance even further.
Needed to play: only a pencil, paper and your imagination! If you have a set of dice you can use them, if not your GM can roll for you. Roll20 has digital dice that look like the real thing if your GM is using that platform.
Words from our fans:
This was my boys' first experience with AiC and they absolutely loved it. I wanted to share what I found an unusual comment: they really appreciated how diligent counselors were about monitoring bad behavior and cheating. It made an enormous difference to them, and they even found that they enjoyed the company of those they'd been avoiding earlier in the week. The fact that you all can manage a "classroom" better than all of their teachers is impressive, and I want to acknowledge that and thank you!
"Our 12-year-old loved being able to connect with real friends playing a cool game while we were stuck at home. I am so happy that this is an option for him while we all stay home. I especially like that there are adults moderating so that it's not too silly. It's a great way for semi-structured socialization!" -Amy, parent
"THANK YOU SO MUCH for this! There were some technology issues at the beginning, but once things got rolling (pun intended), the platform worked well and the dudes were loving it. Gus was beaming at the opportunity to engage with his buddies and embark on this quest. The DMs were engaging and willing to entertain all tangents and absurdity.
Rachel is wonderful at keeping the game moving along throughout stalls, technical hiccups, distracted kids etc. She is a pro, and the kids loved the experience!
