Though land travel is the traditional way to wander around Haeth, its rivers, bays and the occasional seas have always been vital travel links for the communities living near them. To follow these roads, however, your group will need a ship.

Drifthome is a sailing-themed expansion for Wanderhome. It contains three playbooks for ships your group may find and acquire during its travels, which will allow them to give their feet some well-deserved rest and let themselves be carried around Haeth by the wind and the water.

  • The humble Workbug, which, like many inhabitants of Haeth, follows the rhythm of the seasons.
  • The repurposed Relic, doomed to disappear along with fading memories of the War.
  • The wandering Far-Traveled, which carries memories of its past travels, and will, one day, carry memories from yours.

Each playbook has distinct mechanics and actions that can be used to give the game different moods. You can think of them as something halfway between Natures and characters in their own right.

While this expansion does not include rules about sailing itself, there is, however, a few pages of supplemental information at the end: basic information about sailing, tough questions that should probably be handwaved away, and tips on integrating sailing into your story. These are not required reading, but may help keep the game focused on what matters to you.

Clever!  Nice use of the playbook format to treat boats as characters of their own.
