Very cool, couldn’t resist playing it while reviewing. Quite an accomplishment! A really cool way to start (or end) a character’s career.

I played through a large portion of this, and it was quite enthralling. Excellent descriptive writing, easy to follow, and good use of the inspirational material. "Choose your own adventure" never really goes out of style, in my opinion.

Wow! I really like the arms statue artwork. 

You put a ot of effort into this. Should you revise it in the future it'd be great to see some headers, and a bigger font.

Yes, the font had to be smaller so the adventure could fit the 8 page limit. And I still had to cut some things so a revised edition sounds like a great idea. Thank you for the kind words!

Pulling up a GM-less adventure was a smooth move, kimosabi

With solo-play more popular in recent years this is a very cool idea for the game jam. I will definitely slot this in to one of my own solo adventures to try.

Wow, this is one of the most unique adventures I've read in the jam so far! You ran with it and made a massive choose-your-own-adventure, you madlad! This is a cool concept, I'm surprised I haven't seen it more often in the RPG space.

Thank you for your kind words! Yes, the format is heavily underused. Tunnels and Trolls used to write scenarios like this but the system was considered silly and nowadays, the only known solitaire adventures are the few Call of Cthulhu scenarios.
