Great job. Easy to play and a great example of your assets at work. Many thanks for this :)

Creator here! 👋

This game was inspired by the New York Times article "For Many Jan. 6 Rioters, a Pardon From Trump Wasn't Enough" (published January 5, 2026). 

After playtesting, one player reflected: "I slipped deeper and deeper into radicalization due to helplessness. My thoughts ignored the facts—the actual truth—in favor of my feelings. Despite losing everything, I was still convinced of my moral superiority and could not see what my actions cost me."

That gap between experiencing radicalization (in-character) and analyzing it (as a player) is what makes games powerful educational tools.

For players: What did you take away from playing? What surprised you about the mechanics?

"I just released MAGICK SHADOWS, a solo journaling RPG about hunting cursed films through 1940s Hollywood. It's a one-page print-and-play tri-fold with corruption mechanics, noir atmosphere, and tough choices. Would love feedback from anyone up for a play."

Thanks. I’m proud of this one. 

Thanks. I wanted to make a story that could be quickly finished if need be. I hate long puzzle games and stories myself. I saw this as an IF Flash. 👍

Enjoyed it, but at a loss after the incident outside, please provide a hint.

Loved it. Great design aesthetic throughout. Very clever dialogue tree and use of intertitles. Well done. 

Great job. Lots to like here. Solid storytelling and a dramatic rebirth and initial encounter. Well done. 

Love the game and the art style. Beautifully designed.

Here's a WIP look at what I am doing. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1M9icnyS8kl-1UpPq2E2ey2ZG8mFM0ih1/view?usp=shari... Still early days, but I appreciate all your hard work. :)

It’s a great mechanic. May I send you one of my gameplays so you can see how I’m using it?

Great game. I'm playing using PUM Companion, and it's paying off for me. Thanks. :)

Great job. Am parsing through this now and enjoying all your hard work.

I love this book. Prompts and clear instruction make it a joy to use and implement. I’m a big fan of AI Solo RPG gameplay and this book is a must-have to get you up and running. Well recommended. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great job. A super deep dive into what’s possible with AI as a solo player and creator. Informative and detailed, a much recommended source of up to date data. Well done. 

Thank you.

No, thank you. Without your feedback I wouldn’t have anyone playing/ reading. Much appreciated. ✅👍

I've updated and added an Interpreter as well. Not sure what the issue is but hopefully you can see/play now. Thanks for the heads-up.
