Journey - Solo Roleplaying Game for Writers, Creatives, Worldbuilders, and the Uncommonly Curious

Journey is a solo roleplaying game and an exercise in imagination and visualization, using game-style mechanics and concepts to guide you through the roads less traveled in worlds of your own creation. 

I had a blast putting this game together, which is now available on at https://atlastabletop.itch.io/journey (though a hardcover physical release is coming soon). We have a small number of Community Copies available as well.

Essentially, Journey walks players through defining a setting that they'd like to explore, be it a world they've created themselves or an established world they'd like to get to know better (like a TTRPG campaign setting).

Then, with a combination of dice and playing cards, the game will prime the imagination of players, helping them discover new Waypoints in their setting and 'zoom in' on new and exciting Aspects of those places and things.

r/Solo_Roleplaying - Just Released Journey, my first solo RPG that places you as an explorer in your worlds! Great for writers, game designers, GM's, and the Uncommonly Curious

I've had some game designers and writers play through Journey, and they really loved that it helped them explore in a more focused way, allowing their imagination to churn out new inspiration.
