Magestar is a game about rediscovering the world in the wake of an eldritch apocalypse.
Fifty years ago the Magestar fell from the sky and ended the world as humanity knew it. Survivors banded together to forge a path forward. Your town, Two Hills, rose from their efforts. Now it's time to set out and chart the surrounding lands, exploring this world now magically changed.
Magestar revolves around creating a map. Six core moves add to the map in different ways, with the four playbooks building on these core moves. Glimpse faraway locales as the Seer, or add bonus details as the keen-eyed Vampire. The Wizard and the Witch round out the roster as a knowledgeable mage who studies fragments of the Magestar, and one who uses artefacts influenced by it to both heal and harm.
