Time Loop - A one page scenario for Embers of Humanity

A bustling wasteland market is caught in a time loop. Its inhabitants repeat the same actions day after day, unaware that they're stuck. When the survivors visit they become trapped, but they remember the previous loops.

Only two things seem different day to day. One is the giant bird that sometimes flies above the market. The other is the maniac that attacks them whenever  they get anywhere near the bird. The survivors must find a way to escape. They have all the time in the world to figure it out...

Time Loop is a one page scenario for Embers of Humanity that takes inspiration from time loop films like Groundhog Day and Palm Springs.
