The Last Caravan Quickstart

The Last Caravan is a tabletop roleplaying game about a midwinter road trip in the wake of an alien invasion, designed by Ted Bushman and published by Mythworks. You could call it Little Miss Sunshine meets War of the Worlds. This quickstart will give you all the rules, lore, and info you need to play several sessions! Just add players!

The Last Caravan started a kickstarter campaign on June 6th, 2023, and was published in 2024. You can look back at the campaign here.

In this cozy, melancholy post-apocalypse, the aliens came less than a year ago. The war lasted two months, but nobody won. Now, with an alien army rising from the ashes of war, you will have to make a dangerous journey across a shattered North America in search of a new home.

You are normal people finding heroism in extraordinary circumstances. You will explore transformed landscapes, search abandoned towns, discover otherworldly technology, negotiate with newly-formed factions, outrun alien pursuers, and — and all you’ve got is a car, your fellow travelers, and the road.
