What it is about

One of the wonderful things about our world is that so many people's across the world have seen or heard strange things in the dark and told stories about them. We now call many of these beings cryptids, and have continued to tell stories about them to this day. Shoutout to my personal favorite cryptids, the squonk and the jackalope. Create-A-Cryptid is a solo journaling game that gives you the opportunity to make your very own cryptid in a town that currently lacks one. Your goal is to make them the star of the harvest festival next year after the boring one you just witnessed. You'll have a year to plan and place evidence or stage run ins to convince the town your cryptid is real and gain points for your success. You can then use those points to develop more features for your cryptid and your total points accumulated will determine your overall success. Supplies needed: pen/pencil, journal, 2d6s Currently Create-A-Cryptid is a one pager, but I have plans to expand it with some more fun mechanics and roll tables to use down the line.
