Kickstarter Spotlight #2: Journey Through Fairhaven

Fairhaven is a new and innovative multiple-choice book, that will introduce you to the core rules of D&D 5th edition and immerse you into a fantasy world you will never forget. It is a book filled with countless stories, endless opportunities, and battles. Our goal is to create a solo/duo adventure that can be easily played anywhere, anytime, without sacrificing the feeling of a classic D&D campaign. For this, we rely on our years of experience as a DM and player. In addition, the encounters will be based on rules similar to the well-known board game "Gloomhaven" to create simple, yet dynamic and fast-paced battles.  Prepare yourself for an adventure of fantasy and mystery as you start an extraordinary journey without requiring a Dungeon Master, a big group of players, or any prior gaming experience.
