Wayfellow
Our Story
At the dinner table, my siblings and I, with pencils, paper, and a few dice, went on the greatest adventures we’d ever known. We want to give you the chance to go on adventures of your own.
Family Adventures
Our family loves going on adventures. We love traveling together, trying new things, and learning new skills. As part of that, we've been playing storytelling games for years.
Those are some of my favorite childhood memories. We climbed over yeti-infested peaks, through magical jungles, and into deep and dark dungeons. We fought pirates together, slew giants, and hunted monsters.
The Need
Yet, we found that many of our favorite storytelling games aren't designed with families in mind. They require hours of prep, reading huge rulebooks, and understanding complex systems. That is not compatible with most families, with mixed age ranges and limited time.
We wanted to fix that, and we wanted to create stories with the magic that drew us to these games in the first place. In our increasingly complex world, stories of light and darkness, courage and honor, heroism and wonder aren't just fun—they are needed.
A Family Effort
So, all the siblings got to work. Andrew and Peter worked on system design and story. Pearl made every piece of art that you see in the game. Jude handled logistics and box assembly. Elijah did our photography and advertisement. Everyone helped playtest, contributed design ideas, and shared the vision.
Some of you even helped with the playtesting process—and over more than a year we developed Wayfellow: A Storytelling game you can open and play with no prior experience.
Wayfellow
Happy families spend time together, have experiences together, and tell stories together. Happy families adventure together.
A Wayfellow Adventure arrives with everything you need to begin that journey. The adventure box will arrive with the pieces, dice, and rules needed for play. The adventure will teach the rules along the way, and contains the puzzles, mysteries, battles, descriptions, and story needed for an epic adventure.
