Playing A Visit to San Sibilia was great! I think it was one of my favourite solo journaling games so far.

The rules are simple, you draw two cards and, based on their color, you receive prompts for the day: serendipitous + coffee in an open-air cafe, or fraught + gallery opening. I found the prompts very evocative and inspiring, open-ended while decisively setting the tone of the story.

Every time when you draw cards of the same color or number, the city changes, according to another set of prompts. After four changes, your visit to San Sibilia draws to a close. This added a very nice tension, as I had no idea how long my stay in the city would be.

The daily prompts and the unexpected changes proved to be the seeds of a story that gained its own momentum. Every day I was surprised by the turn of the events, and couldn't wait to see what direction the story would take.

The game opens and closes with a set of introspective questions you may answer in the diary, giving an emotional frame to the experience.
