Confronting The Darkness

Confronting the Darkness is a solo journaling RPG that transports players into a dark world inspired by the Cthulhu mythos.

This immersive experience blends investigative gameplay with personal reflection and exploration of the human psyche. Players embark on a journey filled with suspense, intrigue, and horror as they document their own character's descent into madness.

Features:

• Unique journaling mechanic that allows players to record their thoughts and experiences, creating a personalized narrative.
• A self-driven adventure that evolves over five stages of gameplay,  ensuring a different experience with each playthrough.
• Insanity and paranoia meters that not only influence the player's actions and decisions, adding depth and interesting consequences to the game, but have a direct impact on the physical form of the journal.
• Evocative prompts that challenge players to confront their deepest fears and question their perception of reality.

Confronting the Darkness offers a thrilling and thought provoking adventure for fans of horror, mystery, and introspection.

Thank you

A massive thanks to everyone who has downloaded this TTRPG to date. It's my first attempt at a TTRPG and the feedback I have received has been overwhelmingly positive and incredibly generous.

Please leave feedback below. I have a few other ideas for this game, but at this stage they are mostly cosmetic and more aimed at making the book more user friendly.
