To Carry a Sword

Become the guard of a medieval caravan in a journey where the social connections you make are just as important as the money. In this roleplaying game, help the people who hire you in ways far beyond swinging a sword and scaring bandits for them, including tending to their animals and telling stories to their kids. Strategically plan your route across a procedurally-generated world, taking advantage of the text events you encounter to pursue your own goal, whether that is to become skilled and famous enough to join the escort of Her Majesty the Queen, or to see a religious pilgrimage to its destination. In the end, it’s about the people who need you. Experience text-rich interactive events alongside strategic planning and real-time combat. Rely on your social skills as much as your battle prowess to see caravans safely to their destination. Serve the needs of the land’s factions, aiding the Noble, Criminal, Religious, and Heathen. Select routes and explore the procedurally-generated map, seeking the clues to advance each questline. Relax in a self-paced narrative experience of over 85,000 words. Mod the narrative and add your own text events.
