This game appeared on our radar a few days ago. Cartograph is a solo roleplaying game (created by Brandon Lee), where you play as a cartographer exploring and mapping the land as you go. It's a lightweight rules game, that involves several phases of play per turn, where you roll dice to determine where locations and biomes spawn on the map. Players must risk venturing further into the unknown land, being the trailblazers of their time to discover the lost lands.

Below you can see the outcome of a solo session that one of our admins participated in. Unfortunately, our would-be cartographer, Maxim was lost to the wilderness. The next session will be hosted by Taliesin Parker at our next board game session. If ttrpg's are your thing, then come on down and participate in this fun lightweight drawing/journaling game. Let's discover what happened to Maxim together and do a bit of cartography in the process! Or, why not come and learn how to map your own destiny in Cartograph!

Enjoy ttrpgs? Then come and join Taliesin Parker as he hosts a collaborative worldbuilding session this Wednesday on our Discord server.

We'll aim to start at 20:00. The theme will either be fantasy or dieselpunk, and will help build up some lore for a future ttrpg game that we plan on hosting online and potentially in person. No experience in ttrpg's needed. Bring yourself, some paper, digital cookies and a bag of creativity. See you there - Tal

"Write about the most dangerous tool or weapon in your world. How does it work?"
