ROOTS & FLOWERS

A Solarpunk Hack of Lasers & Feelings

In a not-so-distant future, we gave up the illusion of knowing better. This opened new avenues in technological innovation, improving life, and opening our awareness of the subtle, ancestral magic of the world.

You are the local community’s troubleshooters. Your community turns to you for aid in things big and small. You resolve them by means of innovation, knowledge, technology, mediation, and ancestral guidance.

Player Goals:

  • aid and support your community;
  • go on wild, fun, solarpunk adventures;
  • challenge the legacy of the World Before;
  • imagine possible futures.

The ebook (epub) and Simple Text (rtf) versions contain the entire game and are available for free in the “Download the demo” section, as well as the repository online on Codeberg.
