What it is about

Once upon a time, there was a maiden who dwelt with her true love in a little cottage just outside a sleepy village, in the shadow of a imposing castle upon a cliff. Until the tyrant within the castle, seeing their happiness, spitefully placed a curse upon them both. The maiden was ensorcelled to become a small fluttering moth under the light of the moon, returning to her true form only at dawn. And her true love’s spirit was torn out and whisked away, a specter held captive in the castle upon the cliff. But the moth-maiden was clever and determined, and vowed to seek help and regain her love. It is a lovely evening in the village, and you are a beautiful moth. Untitled Moth Game is a solo journaling RPG based on the Breathless and Carta SRDs, with heavy themes of hope, determination, fairy tales and impossible tasks. Play as a cursed moth-maiden. Let the cards deal your fate. Gather moonlight on your wings as a moth. Uncover the history of the land and of the Tyrant in the Castle. Start fairy tales. Finish them. Make promises, and try not to break them all. And whatever you do, don't forget your very first vow. A tarokka deck ( or a tarot deck or a deck of playing cards , with jokers ) A set of polyhedral dice A coin ( to be used as a d2 ) Glass beads or other tokens , to represent Moonlight A figurine to mark your position on the cardmap A large, flat surface to play on A notebook or similar place to record your story A candle ( optional ) Live happily ever after. If you enjoy Untitled Moth Game, consider checking out these games as well: Her Odyssey , also by me, is a slow and contemplative solo journaling RPG about a wanderer trying to make her way home - or find a new home.
