Harmonizer no.9

A Dead World Hex Crawl You are a Harmonizer, an agent of empathy and bravery.  You search for Echoes on a dead world overtaken by a Molting apocalypse, perhaps only one of many such worlds within the greater galaxy. The phantoms born of the molting roam the places their detached souls once called home.  They cannot be beaten, only avoided, as Mask your presence and press on in search of valuable treasures. Solo Hex Crawl The game takes place as a hex crawl across a map that you can fill out yourself with doodles or just reveal the features in your own head. This game is a solo ttrpg adventure, and one that you can come back to again if you want to. <1100 Words This is a submission to the "1100 words TTRPG Kitchen 2026" Jam.  One of the rules for the jam is that the system I designed needed to be written in 1100 words or less for all gameplay content. I did my checking throughout and also trimmed a few sentences for good measure to meet the requirements of the jam submission. It's approximately ~50 words below the cap. Post-Jam Edition I added a post-jam version based on feedback from the jam host and my own sensibilities.  This version is about 300 words longer, with better explained mechanics and some artwork. AI Disclosure I used AI in some of the idea generation process for certain table entries, but only used those ideas as a point of reference.  However, it is likely that some of that text made it through to the finished product, hence the disclosure in the metadata. I also used AI to test game balance through simulations of multiple runs using the game's final ruleset after playtesting it myself.
