What it is about
In the northern reaches of the great desert, there begins a road, the Zhozyon. Nobody knows who built it, and where it ends is the subject of considerable debate. Some say it leads to salvation, a realm free from the sicknesses that plague them. Others believe it leads to other worlds, and travel the road in search of trade or glory. There are those who believe it to be penitence, a trial to atone for their mistakes. Some still simply want to know, to solve the mystery of the Zhozyon. Why do you wish to walk it? Travel the Endless Zhozyon is a 1+ player roleplaying/journaling game where you take on a traveler, navigating your way through various strange and usually draining events, few travelers find what they're looking for. The basic event structure takes some inspiration from choose your own adventure style decisions, although it ideally allows for more personalized choices. Additional Notes - There are 13 premade events in the game currently. I really enjoyed working on the prompts and would like to revisit this game, but I can't justify doing that for free at the moment. So I put it on sale, if the game hits its $50 sales goal I'll write 10 more events for and revisit the rules as a whole to revise and expand them. - GMs may find this game generally useful as inspiration for strange events and mini-stories, although there is currently no guidance on porting the events to other systems. - Originally made for the 2023 RPG-Talk Jam: The long Road
