Welcome to Snowtown

It’s been quite the trip, and you’re about ready to never see a bus again. Which is a pity, because you’re still at the bus station, so there are quite a few of the beasts around. Still, you’ve made it.

You’re in Snowtown.

Always

Snowtown?

You’ve got to get out of here!

This is a pinned card. So long as you have the qualities required for a pinned card, it will be available to play.

The last card you played gave you a quality -- it appeared at the bottom of the screen as "Your "New in Town" quality has increased"

You can see the quality now. On the left is a box with three tabs on top. Click on the middle tab -- it looks like a notebook -- and then click on the word "Story." Your "New in Town" quality is there.

This card requires your "New in Town" quality be at 2. When you select one of the below options, it will change your "New in Town" quality and this card will be removed from your pinned cards.

If a pinned card does not have any options that appeal to you, click "Perhaps not" below all of the options to return to your card screen. The card will remain with your pinned cards until you no longer meet the requirements for it, but you do not have to play it.

Always

Some options also have quality requirements

If an option is "locked" you either do not have enough action points to play the card, and will have to wait for your actions to replenish; or you do not have the qualities required to choose that option. The icons next to the "go" button tell you what the required qualities are -- hover over the icon for more information.

Play in Snowtown is made up of "events" and "storylines."

Events are cards that do not link to any ongoing story -- they are self-contained, and they may occur more than once.

Storylines are ongoing quests that will take you a while to play through. In a moment, you will begin the Welcome to Snowtown storyline, if you haven't already.

Some quests will have clear objectives you must meet to continue the storyline -- like Welcome to Snowtown. Others are more obscure and will require patience.

Opportunities (you remember -- the cards you draw from the Opportunities deck, as opposed to the pinned cards) do not cost action points to play, but it does cost an action point to draw the cards.

To make the best use of your limited actions, you should try to only draw cards from your Opportunities deck when your hand is empty.

For the intro quest

The man is easily six feet tall, with dirty blond hair pulled back in a ratty braid. He is unshaven, unkempt, and, frankly, his odour is off-putting. He grins, displaying a set of yellowing teeth, his dark lips pulling into a series of painful looking cracks. His half-lidded eyes widen just slightly.</p><p>“Hey, man,” he says lazily. “I am, like, so glad you stopped. I am in, just, like, super trouble here, man. A real jam, you know what I’m saying?”

His speech is rapid and unfaltering, indicating a clearer mindset than his appearance and dialect would suggest.

“I got a package I need picked up, and, like, it’s super time-sensitive, right? I need this thing got now. But at the same time I got some friends, like, coming in on the thirty-seven. I need to meet them, and, like, I need to meet them now. But I can’t be in, like, two places at once, man. That’s physics. So I need a favour. You know what I’m saying?”

Unpausing, the man continues: “Anyway, so, like, just go grab that package from Ljubica for me. Thanks! You’re a lifesaver!”

A blink and he’s gone, disappeared into the crowds deeper in the bus station.

You are making progress in your quest.

You step out of the bus station and into a pedestrian zone. You’re standing on a colossal, abstract mosaic - bits of black, white, and copper ceramic embedded in the concrete, creating an image of nothing in particular. The buildings around you are painted bright colours - yellow, robin’s egg, a lot of green in a variety of hues. Here and there are more earthy colours.

The pedestrian zone is surrounded by quaint tourist shops that sell trinkets, doo-dads, gew-gaws, knick-knacks, baubles, and souvenirs.

A Request for a Rodent

A scruffy-looking gentleman catches your attention by waving his arms and shouting something incoherent. He’s wearing a ratty vest and a tattered baseball cap, but his t-shirt is surprisingly clean.

“Man!” he says when he’s done shouting. “Dude! Hey! Woah. There is an emergency situation going on. We need some help, it’s too big for us to handle alone. Can you — I mean — We need some dead rats. Can you get me some dead rats?”

Well, okay

The brawn


Moving on

You keep walking, pretending you didn't hear him. He only follows you for three minutes before finding someone else to harass.

The sun rises.

You come across a beat up, brown and yellow two-door parked on the side of the road. There’s a sandwich board standing next to it which reads DRIFT’S ROAMING SHOP OF WONDERMENTS AND NOVELTIES.

Investigate

You’ve always wanted a wonderment.

Don’t

You have a bad feeling about that car.


A trustworthy sort

Investigate

You’ve always wanted a wonderment.

The car’s door is open, and there’s a human sitting sideways in the driver’s seat with his feet planted on the sidewalk. He’s fanning himself with a straw boater, and is wearing an obscene amount of tarnished silver jewelry. His left eye is brown, his right is lilac.

He grins as you approach, displaying a set of crooked, yellow, and very sharp looking teeth. “Hey, hey, hey, ho,” he says. “Welcome to my humble car. You in need of something?”

You have left a mediocre impression on Drift.

A modest waistcoat

This vest is prussian blue, with faint, silver pinstriping. It looks very smart, and you’ll feel smart wearing it.

Thick gloves

Padded leather, these gloves will protect your hands should you need to get them dirty.

Wingtip shoes

A pair of black and white wingtips. People judge you by the shoes you wear — if you’re wearing these, they’ll judge you favourably.

Charm +1

Mirrored sunglasses

Is the world too bright for you today? These will help.

A clean bandage

Nine out of ten doctors recommend clean bandages over dirty ones.

A houndstooth bowtie

No one will believe the person in a houndstooth bowtie is up to anything unsavoury — but they’re not inclined to take that person seriously, either.

Suspicious -1, Charm -1

A rubber duck

A small, yellow duck. It floats in water and quacks if you squeeze it.

Troubled -1, Magic -1

A satin headband

Rich purple satin wrapped around a sturdy plastic frame, this headband will keep your hair in place so you can worry about other things.

Mind +1

A silk bandana

White and criss-crossed with gold thread, this bandana will keep your hair in place so you can worry about other things.

Mind +1

A pink carnation

It’s very realistic, with silky petals and a floral aroma. But Drift assures you that it is only a very convincing forgery.

Troubled -1, Matter -1

Silk gloves

Thin and airy, these white gloves are made of the finest silk money can buy — or so Drift says.

Charm +1


No purchase made

“Pleasure doing business,” Drift says as he closes the trunk.
