My friends played The Time We Have, about a pair of brothers in a zombie apocalypse, one of which is infected and dying; it's a two person card-based rpg, played through a closed door

The premise is that one of you is infected, and you both know about it. You only have a little time left before the infected brother turns into an unthinking monster.

Each of you have a deck of cards with questions to ask the other one, role-playing prompts which build into a complex story. Other cards advance the sickness or even end the game.

It’s an intense journey, and the prompts can trigger powerful emotions.

A few of my friends recorded themselves playing it. The video contains spoilers, especially as it goes on, so if it looks like a game you’d like to play you might want to stop watching around the halfway point.

It’s a very interesting concept. You both know it’s going to end in tragedy from the start, but it still manages to kindle hope.

Personally I haven’t played it yet, in part because I have had too much death in my own life recently, and it gets very heavy by the end. It’s fun to watch at least. I love this style of RPG.
