About the game
What you do in a play session
Ever had that feeling of getting so lost in a story that you never want to leave? In Out of Print, that feeling is exactly your biggest challenge: escaping a book before the story traps you forever! This is a purely solo experience that blends the tension of a thriller with the elegant simplicity of card and dice mechanics. You step into the shoes of a literary hero tasked with navigating through disordered pages to find the exit. But don't think it's going to be a relaxing read; the story's antagonist is always one step behind, trying to shuffle everything up and ensure you remain forgotten between the printed lines. To win, you must arrange the pages in the correct order, acting with precision before time runs out. If you take too long to decipher the plot, the book snaps shut, leaving you as just another character lost in the ink. It's a quick, intense, and perfect experience for those who love the charm of pocket games and the magic of literature. Get your dice ready, organize your cards, and try not to become just a footnote in this adventure!
