So, honestly not sure if something like this exists.

Going on vacation and looking for an entry-level RPG like game that I can play together with my wife while camping.

It could be pen and paper based or an actual board game. But it needs to be a guided story which requires little preparation. Also open for other suggestions for 2p other than the typical classic/card games.

Thanks everyone!

Not EXACTLY what you're looking for, but Gloom is a super compact card game good for packing up. You each pick a family, and your goal is to make them miserable as possible before killing them off one by one. Your opponent can fuck you up by causing positive events in your families lives.

There's no narrative persay, but there's a lot of fun to be had in narrating the cards as you play them, and throwing a little mustard on it or just trying to tie the events together as they play.

I love gloom! I think it needs more players though. But it is emergent storytelling for sure and very good
