crisis: red skies in our hearts and minds

you live in a world of superheroes and super villains, gods and monsters, and cosmic beings beyond your ken. you, however, are a civilian – only vaguely connected to the world of the fantastic. you live an ordinary life with ordinary people in the ordinary world. except… every so often, you feel the world reset. things that once were, people you once knew – gone as if they never existed. and the world goes on. you live an ordinary life with ordinary people in the ordinary world. and one by one, they all disappear…

crisis is a solo journaling rpg about trying to live a normal life as the continuity of your universe constantly resets. while superheroes escape mostly unscathed, you as a civilian are wrenched from your life to preserve the universal status-quo. a full game ends with you erased from continuity. it is a miserable thing to be normal in the world of the extraordinary.
