Stranger in a Foreign Land
A downloadable game
You have decided to leave your homeland, for reasons best known to you. Was it due to war, persecution, economic struggles, climate changes, or others? The only thing that matters is that you’ve attempted to get your life on track. A second chance of some sort.
“Stranger in a Foreign Land” is a journaling game, where you play out as someone who tries to adapt to a new community. A strange, new land called "The Land of Hope" awaits! You will confront who you are against the customs and ways of life of the people who welcomed you. You will make hard choices between learning to behave like a local and taking care of yourself. How will your identity change in the process?
This game needs only you, two ten-sided dice (2d10), and a pen & paper or word processor to write down the gameplay.
Those Spells will be helpful too!

You can try out free demo first to try out, what kind of the Foreigner you create!
It's recommended to view this game in a Notebook app or in a web browser (Chrome, Firefox, Opera, Edge), because it's made in an ancient and forgotten ASCII technology of .txt format.
