Welcome to the Wandering the Whimdark, a solo journaling RPG engine that utilizes a Character Sheet, a deck of 25 cards (five different suits, with values from 6 to 10), three 6-Sided Dice, and this adventure source book. In playing this game you are taking on the role of a character who for their own reasons has chosen to embark on a journey through this wonderful and whimsical, wild and perilous world. You’ll have to use your skills not only to make your way through the Whimdark, but to survive the encounters it throws at you.
This is a game about telling stories. The Whimdark wants you to wander its overgrown trails, seek out new and interesting inhabitants, find lost things, confront your beasts. Know that as you wander, dangers lurk near, fight when you can, and run when you must. Not everyone makes it through the Whimdark…
