The Future We Were Promised

You and a companion are cornered, pinned down, trapped by a powerful threat. One of you is also helpless – wounded or terrified or just a kid. You don’t know how long you have until the walls close in. At some point you’ll have to make a break for it.

The Future We Were Promised is a one-page story game for two players. It requires two dice. Content warning: This is a tragic game and the text references examples that involve violence and death.
