GOLEM is a solo roleplaying game designed to tell stories about a being twisted by magic who travels the lands to right the wrong. GOLEM is different to other roleplaying games because it: Resolves uncertain outcomes with playing cards via quick action draws aiming to beat a 7 with partial success built into the system. Incorporates a free-form magic system that relies on building sets of cards. Uses progress track-inspired tools to govern activities that require continued effort such as delving into a dungeon or fighting a monstrous beast.
