How it works
You leave your hometown for Nanyang. Each year a letter arrives from home — you choose how to reply and whether to send silver. Five stats shift: bond with family, family welfare, savings, health, and homesickness. Survive thirty years, return early, or fail if any stat hits zero.

What is Letters Home?
A narrative letter game: leave your hometown for Nanyang, receive one family letter per year for thirty years, and choose how to reply — send silver, share news, or promise to return.
How to Play
Pick why you left (trade, study, or refuge) and a play mode. Each year opens a letter from home; pick a reply. Stats update: bond, family welfare, savings, health, and homesickness. Abroad events follow each reply.
Endings
Return home early, complete thirty years of correspondence, or lose the bond when stats collapse. Remittances and faithful replies boost your score.
