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!

EDIT: Thanks y’all for your recommendations, I will check everything out! Lot of promising options here!

    You might like Gloomhaven: Jaws of the Lion. You pick your characters, then do quests (which can branch). Pretty sure it uses a book for the scenario maps, so the set up will be figuring out your characters deck and items. The game supports up to 4 people, but you could also just play multiple characters (if you want).

      This requires quite some setup and has a bit of a learning curve, but is super fun once you’ve learned the basics. Highly agree with this recommendation!

        if it’s for a camping experience I’d say the amount of components could make it difficult to setup
