Void 1680 AM

VOID 1680 AM is an immersive solo tabletop role-playing game (TTRPG) and zine created by Ken Lowery of Bannerless Games. Players act as a late-night AM radio DJ, building playlists and inventing fictional, lonely callers using a deck of cards, a six-sided die, and their own music collection. It is a narrative-focused,, atmospheric experience often described as a "playlist-building" game.

Speak into the Void

Night after night, you sit alone with your thoughts, your music, and a microphone. Whether you come to your radio show with somber attitude or joyful spirit, you use the music that moves you to etch something fleeting and beautiful into the big empty.

You never know who is listening

There are other voices in the darkness. With a deck of cards, a six-sided die and a stack of music, you will build a playlist, invent and interact with Callers to your show, and evolve their stories over as many broadcasts as you like. No matter their motivations, they simply must be heard. In that way, you are very alike.

VOID 1680 AM includes rules for single-session and ongoing play, instructions to have your show broadcast on the airwaves as an Affiliate, and even a way to add your voice to a library of Callers that other DJs can use in their own games.

In this game, you can...

• Build a 12-song playlist
• Invent and interact with Callers
• Evolve the stories of your Callers over multiple shows
• Have your show broadcast on AM and YouTube
• Add your voice to an archive of Callers for others to use

"Voices in the Void"

Some desire a Caller experience where the strangers are a little bit.... stranger. This free expansion replaces the Caller sheet in the main game with tables that have a weirder edge to them. The nature of that strangeness - supernatural, purely human, or something else entirely - is up to you.
