What it is about
A solo journaling game based off of the Wretched and Alone system by Chris Bissette. You will play as the Botanist; someone who values their academics and career above all else with little time for social ties. The Botanist is dying, and now must depend on someone else to prolong their life as they search for a cure. This is a fantasy game with tragic romance leanings. All writing and design was done by me, accursedmaiden, using the Wretched and Alone system created by Chris Bissette.
