CHILDHOOD ENTERTAINMENT AND LIFELONG LEARNING

Hands-On Research is a low-stakes adventure exploring life in a world filled with technology that no one truly understands — and the absurdity that can result from interfering with it.

As the player characters camp outside Emerta, a city miraculously still standing after the Builder War, an enigmatic stranger approaches, wielding repurposed Old World technology, including a unique Waker Tracker. Brandishing this mysterious piece of equipment, together they follow a strange signal and traverse the remains of a bizarre institute aimed at teaching young Emertan children. In the depths of this facility, the party must finally confront the origins of the mysterious signal they have been following.

Hands-On Research is focused on exploration and roleplay, but is easily adapted to include additional elements of danger and unpredictability to suit your own group.
