What it is about

You're on board...🐉 ... Adventure didn't call you, but life's paths led you to this ship, embarking on a hunt across the chaotic waters of the Altos sea, in search of a mythical creature—the sea dragon. Now, there's no turning back. You must survive with the crew, learn and adapt, and finally, under the command of a mad captain, face Satheru, the Mayhem Beast. A solo journaling game about a misadventure, a monster, and dangerous paths ✨ This game explores emotions, uncertainty, and your character’s desires. Will you face the journey? CREATE YOUR OWN PATH Embark on a maritime journey where ordinary and extraordinary events blend together. In the vast ocean, you'll have the chance to forge friendships, rivalries, loves, and alliances. Record every moment of your adventure in a personal journal. For the secrets you cannot share with anyone, write them in a letter, seal it in a bottle, and cast it into the sea, trusting destiny to deliver it anonymously to the world. CARD-BASED You will draw from a deck of Major Arcana Tarot cards to shape an unpredictable destiny. Each card carries unique values that come into play during challenges, alongside powerful keywords and effects that influence your path and decisions throughout your misadventure. RULES-LIGHT Simple rules, yet enough to bring excitement to your game, where survival in this misadventure is never guaranteed. You'll need to make clever decisions to avoid the consequences of your stats and reach your goal. This game can be played in a single session, over several days or weeks, and can even be adapted to fit your campaign. GO SOLO OR NOT A solo adventure for a single session or an extended play (adaptable for campaigns). You will need a copy of this game, a deck of Major Arcana Tarot cards (or a random number generator), a pencil, and a journal or something to take notes. CONTENT WARNING: Despite its poetic tone and narrative perspective, StMB is a personal challenge suitable for mature adults. Some prompts explore sensitive themes like grief, depression, anxiety, isolation, and despair. Please immersion is fun, but be careful with yourself and your feelings in the course of your experience, your physical and psychological health are more important than the game. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
