Traysikel: Ride or Die is a punk rock fantasy motorcycle adventure. In this system-neutral dual-pamphlet module your rebel cabbie must ferry a Babaylan fugitive across the jungle mountain on a tricycle taxi! Battle nightmarish monsters while navigating the island’s violent colonial occupation and its brewing revolution.
This fast-paced, point crawl module features tricycle customization and unique travel rules to give a "motorcycle diaries" style journey across a horror/fantasy setting within a fictional Philippines. Traysikel draws its themes from 400 years of imperial colonialism in an alternate reality where indigenous magic and monsters still dominate the archipelago. Game design and art by a Filipino-American creative team.
Traysikel funded on Crowdfundr in participation with ZineMonth 2023.

Declan (Horsepondmine)
