What it is about

You’re another fool on a quest to the center of the forest. The deeper you go, the greater the dangers will become. Ancient powers. Monstrous guardians. Strange landmarks. Villages make terrible pacts. Heroes die. Forest Burial is a TTRPG for one player, designed to fit into a gum case. Just get a 35 pack of Extra or Five gum,  and print, cut and fold. (I recommend using cardstock). The game uses simple mechanics to create a challenging and satisfying adventure. You can fit 2d6 in the case along with the game, your character sheet and a quest log.  Other than a pencil, that’s all you need. A one page version is also available, if you don't have a case. Forest Burial is a hack of Nate Treme’s Tunnel Goons . It takes ideas from Tana Pigeon’s One Mage Mythic , Yochai Gal’s Cairn , Geek Gamers’ Solo Game Master’s Guide , and Silver Nightingale’s Ultimate One Page Solo RPG Toolkit. The game takes inspiration from Vermis, Princess Mononoke, Shadow of the Colossus, and dungeon synth artists like Depressive Silence, Fogweaver,  and Fief. Designed by Nealyboy, featuring public domain art from Albert König and William Yarrell. The HPS Doodle Tiles are used with permission by Nate Treme of Highland Paranormal Society.
