Deviously simple in its conceit but incredibly addictive. I've played a fair few Solo TTRPGs and I really enjoyed my plays with this one! What I like about it most is the push and pull of the paranoia and insanity meters. These offer additional prompts that shape not only what you write, but the how you write. I found myself embodying a mad and paranoid woman scribbling over my work, drawing in the margins, crossing out and rewriting things all while remaining in character. It was incredibly immersive - highly recommend it for that.
As a plus, if you're new to TTRGs, particularly solo, this one does a great job of getting around the writers or creative blocks. There are enough prompts and nudges from the paranoia and insanity meters to help keep you in character, and really helps the ideas flow without feeling too prescriptive. Just brilliant!
I absolutely loved playing through this. It was definitely meatier than I expected and I learnt a lot from it was it was my first solo rpg. I descended into extreme paranoia and had so much fun doing it. I love looking at my notes and remembering the story beats and the feeling of discovery and exploration.
I'm so glad you enjoyed it. I felt that while creating prompts that encourage a memorable story is always important, it was just as important that the end state of the journal reflected the story as well. Hope you can look back on it again in months to come and have the terror flood back to you, haha.

Than you for your review. I'm so pleased you enjoyed it.
It is feedback like this that inspires me to create more TTRPGs in the future. I have one in the works right now that is even more ambitious...
Thanks for playing!!!
