A downloadable solo journaling TTRPG

Game Description

"Hi, I am the End" is a solo journaling TTRPG where you play as one of many Ends, an usher of souls at the final moments of their corporeal life, leading them to a New Beginning. You, too, were once alive and corporeal, but all of your memories seem to elude you...all but one....them.

In this game, you will use dice and a standard deck of playing cards to journey across the world and usher souls to where they belong next, all while regaining memories from your own life.

Content & Safety

“Hi, I am the End” investigates themes of isolation, death, and mental and physical health. The game will end with your character fading.

Your safety and well-being are always more important than the game. You might feel the need to alter a dice roll, modify a prompt, or revisit an earlier character choice. As the player, you have full authority to change the narrative as you see fit.

Special thanks to Sam Leigh (@goblinmixtape on TikTok) for introducing me to solo TTRPGS and recommending games that were formative in this process.


PLEASE READ:

This game is in a playtesting phase! If you decide this game is worth your time, I would be so grateful if you could record your feedback for me so that I can make the game the best it can be.

This is the first prototype and if it garners sufficient attention, I will most likely make a more well-designed version with art and such. 

This is also the first TTRPG I have ever written and I am super excited to see what people think.
