Upriver Downriver

Upriver Downriver is a fantasy role-playing game inspired by tarot, in which you navigate a magical river and persevere on an impossible journey.

Together, you and your crew will take a magical oath to reach either the Source of the Great River, or the Sea. No one has ever returned from either destination, and each has its own challenges and rewards. But whatever detours your journey may take, once you've taken an oath, your soul is committed to continuing its journey towards your goal. Even in death, your ghost will be bound to your oath and your ship, compelled to complete your journey.

On your journey, you'll visit enchanting, enigmatic and hostile places along the river. Each location is linked to one of the major arcana, and is home to unique characters and challenges. Your trials and triumphs are determined by the dice and tarot cards. It's up to you to decide what to do with the hand that fate and the river hold out to you.
