Hi all. We’ve played a lot of Sherpa over the years, but although we’ve made occasional vague plans, we’ve never used it the way it was originally intended. Given the covid situation, now might be the perfect time. So who’s up for a hike?
Sherpa is a low-footprint (index card, pencil, 1d10), rules-light indie game intended to be played in the great outdoors. No previous knowledge of the game or rulebooks required.
If wandering around the woods, hills and vineyards of the city’s outskirts while playing a role-playing game sounds like your idea of a good time, just drop a post below and we’ll set a date. Monday’s a holiday, next weekend looks good, too … we’ll find something.
And many thanks to those who played. First official RPG Vienna Hike!
The scenario was a bit underwhelming (so what else is new), although I think the slow, meandering pace did go well with our own wanderings, but as a proof of concept, I’d say it went pretty well. As a means of playing responsibly in times of covid, yeah, this works.
And who knows, maybe come spring, things will be better and we’ll be doing this purely for the joy of it rather than as a way of responsibly playing in person. Here’s hoping.
