Remember the Land is a solo game where you play as a traveler and cartographer who is trying to register a map of the region and its features before the land is destroyed. There is nothing you can do to save the area, but you can make sure that future generations remember its history. You have to be quick though, or you will be caught in the calamity that's about to happen.
To play this game you will need: standard deck of 52 playing cards with the jokers removed, pen/pencil and note paper, a token representing your character, a flat surface for laying out your card grid.
The game starts by creating a 4x4 grid of face down cards and placing your character's token in the starting point. Move your character through the grid, from the Start Point to the Exit Point, mapping your path and managing the Countdown. Your goal is to map as much of the land as you can AND get to the Exit Point before the Countdown reaches zero.
Each card has a narrative prompt to be answered as you character moves through the grid. All though you are required to draw a map while you play, you don't need artistic skills. The important part is that YOU understand the map, it doesn't matter if it is just a bunch of doodles and words.
