Narration provided by Aaron Catano-Saez. Hit the Road, Jack is a solo/duet game of adrenaline rush and creeping terror. Of chasing and being chased, of being forced to face your sins or to leave them all behind. It is a game of cat and mouse between two characters that we call the Jacks. This is a game that mentions blood, violence, drugs, crime, and death - both deaths you choose and deaths you don’t. Jack Be Nimble is the sinner, the criminal, and the one being chased. Jack Be Quick is the lawman, the aggrieved, and the one who chases. This is their journey cross-country across an empty stretch of highways. By drawing tarot cards and responding to journaling prompts, you will be able to flesh out the nature of these two Jacks, their relationship, and how they deal with whatever the road throws at them.
