Signs of the Sojourner is a story-driven card game where conversations are navigated via a sequence-building card mechanic. The player's deck represents who they are as a person and how they grow through their experiences. It's about communicating and connecting rather than defeating enemies, as the player must work with a conversation partner in order to have a dialogue.
The player takes the role of a young person taking over the family store after their mother's death, and stepping into her shoes to travel the world, meeting people and collecting goods to bring home and stock in the shop. It's a near future, alternate-earth setting where communities have been impacted by climate change and travel is difficult, but it's not a gritty post-apocalypse. It's melancholy but hopeful and relaxing.
It is a single player game coming to Windows and MacOS in 2020.
