Last Post at Tarapani

Seven days before the water. Every letter matters.

Tarapani is a small mountain village with a post office, a handful of families, and a week left before everything changes.

You are the village postmaster. From Monday to Sunday, sort the mail, deliver letters, handle telegrams, collect payments, manage registered post, and keep the post office running while the people of Tarapani prepare for an uncertain future.

But the mail is more than paper.

Every letter carries a story. Every delivery connects people. Some messages need to arrive urgently. Some should never be opened. And some may change what happens to the village.

🌧️ Seven Days. One Last Post.

The game takes place from 12–18 October 1998 in the fictional Ranigarh Division.

As the week progresses, the village changes. Families move. Roads become harder to cross. The weather turns. New instructions arrive. And the post office slowly becomes a place where the personal lives of Tarapani's residents intersect with something much bigger.

You have seven days.

Deliver what you can.

🕯️ A Small Story About Big Things

Last Post at Tarapani is about the quiet moments that happen before a place disappears.

It is about letters that arrive too late, people who are trying to say goodbye, ordinary work carried out in extraordinary circumstances, and the connections that remain even when the roads don't.

The post office closes at six.

Make your last round count.
