Bus of the Desert
A downloadable text crime
This is a game.
In it, you drive a bus through the desert. Maybe you listen to the radio! That's on you. I don't have a radio for you to download. Should you download a car, it'll probably come with a radio pre-installed.
Godspeed, bus driver

Bus Of The Desert is a one-page trpg homage to the iconic Desert Bus.
And it's really actually good.
The writing carries it, and has an almost poetic voice at times, but the mechanics are also a pretty solid adaptation of the video game. There's a hard mode (keep two tops spinning for four hours) and a normal mode (roll 2d6 every three minutes for four hours) as well as a scoring system.
Overall, I strongly recommend this as a read, and I think it'd also be perfectly playable as a way to raise money for charity.
I got some undeserved praise in my school years and this is still the best thing anyone's ever said about my writing. Thank you.
It's really good! If you enjoy writing, please write a lot!
A perfect game to play on a lazy afternoon. Love it!
I'm glad people seem to be enjoying that this game exists!
If you also somehow enjoy playing it, do let me know. That part I have doubts about.

Thank you! I've been floored by what people have said to me about this.

Very meditative in its way. I always lose focus :(
This being the case, I do not recommend you play adamebell's "My Brain Is A Stick Of Butter" but I do, conversely, recommend you recommend that other people play it
