Scandalous

Scandalous
a fast play solo RPG by Rod Humble

 In this solo RPG You sequentially traverse 13 tables, employing a 66-sided die mechanism (2d6). The first die gives the first digit, the second the second digit, generating 36 possible results from 11 to 66. Your dice rolls map to a table entry, leading you through the game as you create the narrative of your choice. You will need a pair of regular dice and imagination.

Game instructions

1. Roll: Begin with a roll on each table. If the result fits your unfolding story, use it.

2. Re-roll: Unhappy with the outcome? You may choose one re-roll per table, but the new result is final.

3. Proceed: Advance to the next table, interpreting the outcome within your adventure. Follow the sequence from table 1 to 13.

4. Imagine: Reflect on or record each roll, choice, and reaction. Consider their broader implications on your journey.

Throughout the 13 tables, weave the results and discarded rolls into your narrative. Your creativity will guide your tale, reflecting not only on chosen paths but also on what might have been. The game ends after all 13 tables are traversed, culminating in the resolution of your story.
