You can do them based off of fact or completely made-up. However you want to play. Then just roll the dice to find out your future as an off-the-grid family. Everything is completely option. You don’t feel like having animals or children, that’s fine! [name_m]Just[/name_m] do as you want to play it and have a good time! Enjoy!
