Lost Settlers

If you are looking for a game that combines roleplay, conflict, survival, settling, and exploration in a historical setting, you will be interested in this game. You will play as an adventurer who belongs to one of three groups inspired by the cultures and histories of the 1700s British and Dutch, the 1600s Spanish and Germans, or the 1st century Picts, Gauls, and Celts. You will have to choose your items and skills wisely, as they will help you face the dangers and opportunities of the new land. You will also have a secret goal that will shape your actions and decisions. You will have to deal with challenges that may require you to be brave, cruel, or sacrificial. You will also discover the mystery of what happened to the settlers who came before you and disappeared. This game is not about pure combat; it is about creating a rich and immersive story with your fellow players in a historical context. If this sounds like something you would enjoy, come with us and discover the fate of the Lost Settlers.
