Bookstore by Chance - Solo Journaling Game

This game is about exploring an imaginary world through the perspective of a bookstore worker. Talk to customers and keep track of their stories as you work day to day. These interactions are driven by prompts based on your dice rolls and are completely made up by you as you write in your journal. Interactions are taxing on your Social Energy, but this can lead to fun roleplaying moments.

This is my first time making a TTRPG / journaling game, but I found quite a few people to play-test it before release and used their feedback to improve the game.  I've had some enthusiastic responses from them and one of them said it was one of the more enjoyable journaling games they've played.

I hope you enjoy it!

Congrats on your first ttrpg! Journaling style games seem really popular in the ttrpg space right now in particular, but I haven't tried any yet.

Thank you!  Yeah I’ve only played a few but I really like them as like creative writing prompts.  

That makes sense! I really need to try some

My first one was this one.  I enjoyed it quite a bit.  You can even remix it and play it two-player by sending letters to a friend witch!
