What it is about

On Halloween night, the waters of the Ditsy Malon River whisper beneath the mist, and the forest becomes a maze. Lost in the woods, you must chart your way from the Start to the Exit before midnight. Roll two dice, draw straight paths through the trees, cross the cursed river, avoid the thorns… and gather as many mushrooms as you can along the way. Ditsy Malon River is a solo roll & write print-and-play game for Halloween. What you need 2 six-sided dice A pencil A printer How it plays Each roll gives you a row and a column: link that square to one you have already visited, in a straight line. Spend Potions to tweak your dice or pay river tolls. Thorns fill you with Terror, and every failed move thickens the Mist.
