After plotting 22 unique locations on my map and writing 101 pages to accompany it, I finally finished my playthrough of the Lonesome Cartographer. Obviously, I loved it and didn't want the game to stop. Really, truly perfect and everything I love in a Solo RPG: a bevy of options to choose from, broad enough to work for any situation, but unique enough that it still feels gameified. Well worth the purchase!

Had an absolutely blast playing this. I understand the player base has dwindled, but if so, the game still did a great job of circulating older messages out to me so that it felt very vibrant and alive. I always felt like I might be just about to bump into another player's boat on the next screen. <3
'Watchtower' was such a lovely experience, and exactly what I was looking for in a solo RPG journaling game. I loved the experience of copying out my own map and filling it in as I explored. The random tables were excellent, and I loved all of the created NPCs, both the other watch tower staff and the random visitors you could encounter. This system was nice and flexible -- I extended my character's "contact" when I decided I wanted to keep playing, and I pivoted the story to be more supernatural when I ran into the same weird NPC three times in a row.
Loved this game, and I can't recommend it enough.
