Description
  • You step onto the shores of another world.

    Before you sprawls an archipelago of misty isles, each scattered with odd contraptions and ancient ruins. Above it all looms a mysterious tower, its dome reflecting the golden glow of an ever-setting sun.

    While most of this curious realm is unknown to you, a few facts are certain:

    This place is called Rillem.

    You are not alone here.

    This world ends in three days, and you are already running out of time. . .

    In this solo journaling RPG, you'll explore a hidden world of strange islands by discovering devices, uncovering forgotten lore, and searching for the prisoner who is trapped in this doomed place.

    By making notes and sketches as you move your token around the map, you'll be left with a physical relic of your journey at the end of the game.

    Time is short and Rillem is dying.

    Can you solve its mysteries and escape before everything collapses?

    What You'll Need

    • standard deck of playing cards (jokers removed)
    • something to write/draw on
    • something to write/draw with
    • a game token to move around the map (coin, button, pebble, small toy, etc)
    • 10 tokens to track resources
    • 4 long items (pens, bits of string, drawn lines, etc.) to connect isles
