Two More Solo Journaling Games Are Here!

Cozy season is here, and I have two new solo journaling games to share—one haunted manor and one very unusual night job! Each one is a complete little world you step into all on your own: no game master, no group to schedule—just you, a journal, and a story waiting to be told.

House on Blackwood Hill cover

House on Blackwood Hill — A Cozy Gothic Solo RPG

High above a quiet village stands Blackwood House, a grand old manor that has been closed to visitors for decades—and this Halloween, the village historical society is opening it to the public again. You've volunteered to spend seven days preparing it, with a rather opinionated ghost supervising your work and a certain locked studio upstairs waiting to be discovered. Explore the manor room by room, restore what time has forgotten, and journal the story your choices create. The complete 14-page printable game includes the two-story floor plan and tracker, a printable journal page, and two sheets of coordinating cutouts. Buy it directly from me for $4.40—20% off the regular $5.50.

The Midnight Switchboard cover

The Midnight Switchboard — A Cozy Solo Journaling RPG

Take the night shift at the Midnight Exchange, where the old switchboard connects the calls no one else can hear. Draw a card to meet each of your 52 callers, roll one die to see how the call turns out, and log every conversation in your operator's journal. It's an open-ended cozy career played one quiet night at a time—five shifts a week, or whenever the lamps are lit and the board starts to glow. The complete 15-page printable game includes the weekly call log, the operator's personnel file, and two sheets of journaling cutouts. Buy it directly from me for $4.40—20% off the regular $5.50.

Both games are also waiting for you in my Etsy shop, BreeMatthewsStories, and you can browse all of my solo RPGs any time at breematthews.com/rpgs. Put the kettle on, pick up your journal, and come tell a story with me!
