All Fall Down: A Pleasant Apocalypse (Part 1)

In a rural town called Pleasant, four people navigate a post-apocalyptic world. Two teenagers, Kim and Jenny, the gruff Duck, and the weaselly ex-gang member John Smith make an unlikely team as they search for food, water and safety. All Fall Down utilizes matchsticks as a device for creating character skills, backstory and equipment.

All Fall Down is a game by Roz Leahy (https://allthingstruly.itch.io/) and was the winner of the 200 Word RPG Challenge, 2015: https://200wordrpg.github.io/2015/rpg/winner/2015/04/01/AllFallDown.html
