What it is about
This is an entry in the One Page RPG 2023 Jam . Topog is a 1-5 player game in where players are rolling dice and exploring the wilderness with the knowledge that a child may be missing in the area. Players chart the area using a unique topography map generator. They'll use dice to explore the area, and inch closer to solving the mystery. The player with the most points in the end wins. Each player will need a map to draw on. (There is a bigger map included in the zip file) The group will need 5 dice (all D6, 3 white, 1 blue, 1 green). Each player will need 1 white D6. Each player will need 4 different colored pencils to mark their maps. The game is played over 24 rounds. Roll dice. Arrange them in order. Chart your map. Draw your lines. Score your points. This is game that probably wasn't meant to be contained to a single sheet of paper. If there's enough interest, I'll explore making a bigger game with it. Would love to hear your thoughts. Thanks for playing! 1.1 - Fixed some typos, and adjusted wording/labels for better clarity.
