The end is coming. You may not know for certain, but someone does. They’ve seen it, experienced it, lived through it. They’ve seen you and your community die. But, at the last second, they were able to turn back time and come back to this moment, a few days before the end. Maybe this time, they can set things right.

You are not that person. You are here, days before an encroaching disaster, just trying to survive. You see it, your friends see it, but the people who could be making decisions aren’t doing anything about it. What are they even supposed to do? How do you fight something like this?

--------------------

Dawn of the First Day is a game about time loops and surviving in an end time. It’s not about stopping  the end of the world, but it’s about doing your best to make the best decisions you can while leading up to it. It’s about how people come together to help their community in times of trouble. It’s also about how some people turn against their neighbors to help themselves.

To play, you'll need a deck of playing cards with the jokers still in it. This game is inspired by Texas Hold 'Em, Fiasco, and ERS. It draws inspiration for it's theming from Majora's Mask.
