What it is about
Book Explorer: Have you ever loved a book's world so much you wanted to explore it yourself? ---📖--- Book Explorer is a nifty little solo TTRPG that fits on a bookmark and lets you do just that! Inspired by a variety of gamebooks and minimalist TTRPGs, I have designed Book Explorer to try and help people get into solo-roleplay in a slightly more guided way. I have tried to use the book itself as the main driver of the adventure, though you will need a D6 (6 sided dice) to play as well. There are 6 different colour themes to choose from (the game is the same for all), so that you can match your bookmark with the atmosphere of your book! Themes: (Seen in screenshots -->) Forest: for woodland adventures or cozy stories Strawberry Tart: for silly and goofy adventures Umbra: for dark and mysterious adventures Steel: for sharp, dangerous adventures Sprout: for effervescent, small scale adventures Butternut Squash: for adventures inspired by fables and folk tales Of course, any theme can be used for any book!
