It's 1941 in an alternate war world 2, one without zombies or uncanny tech. It will be familiar enough to the historical thing, but there would be more than just cosmetic changes, so there can be some surprises along the way and you cannot really simply google for a Panzer IV to know what it can do.
It's a gamebook of the old kind: branching narrative, character sheet and dice, only in gemtext. I'm not going to use cgi for this; part of the old gamebook "experience" was to cheat... a wee bit on the dice, or perhaps "pre-read" the answers, just a quick glance... You don't do that? Great, that's your choice and go ahead with it.
It will be released in "chunks", the first comprising 50 sections... the second, well, I have no idea yet. Let's see if people like it or play it first and then, well, then we shall see.
The story begins with the Player Character on the road, your nation is under a treacherous attack, and you are the only survivor of a refugee column, oh, and you are 14 years old. Good luck, you'll need it.
