Rillem is a beautifully melancholy solo map-making journaling game about exploration, discovery, and escaping a world that is already doomed. You explore a crumbling archipelago of strange islands using playing cards, drawing maps, uncovering mysteries, and racing against a strict three-day time limit. It’s not about saving the world, it’s about documenting it, understanding it, and deciding what (or who) you take with you when you leave. The prompts are evocative, the structure is elegant, and the slow pressure of time creates real emotional weight
Perfect for solo players who enjoy journaling, light drawing, and narrative discovery over mechanics-heavy play.
