Leadtown

An Old West storytelling game set in a boom-and-bust mining town, where characters leave their former lives behind and seek new fortunes. Players shape their stories through scenes involving prospecting, gambling, cons, vigilantism, politics, king-making, and the law, pursuing power, wealth, and justice. The rules draw on the traditional card game Faro. Play requires two standard decks with jokers, poker chips, pencils, paper, one coin per player, and printed playbooks.
