Humans are gone, lost to legend and remembered only by their ruins and the little creatures that survive them. In their place, animals have built towns, founded guilds, and created a civilisation of their own where beasts of all kinds can live in relative harmony.
In this cosy solo RPG, you take on the role of a Poultice Pounder, a beast with knowledge of ailments and their cures. It's your job to travel the post-human landscape of the Bristley Woods, visiting ailing beasts and foraging for the reagents needed to cure them, all while working towards the end of a grand Seasonal Journey.
Apawthecaria is a blend of and Go on a potion-making, road-tripping, friend-making adventure with some of these exciting features:
- A detailed map of the Bristley Woods, using brand new Travel mechanics!
- A world of intelligent animals, inspired by Redwall and Watership Down
- Barter for Reagents in markets atop trees and in deep warrens.
- Upgrade your Tools and Wagons.
- Bring along a trusted Familiar to help you on your way.
- Befriend quirky Companion bugs!
- Experience detailed encounters that make each Season throughout the year feel and play differently.
- Multiplayer playbooks, for 2 - 15 players!
With beautiful artwork from a smorgasbord of amazing artists, a gorgeous layout by Brian Tyrrell, and 200 pages of Ailments, Reagents, Encounters and more to explore, Apawthecaria will delight newcomers and Apothecaria veterans alike.
