how can we get new print copies of this? Exalted Funeral said they're not restocking and it looks like the ones at Spear Witch aren't showing up. can we get a restock somewhere? 🖤
In my first game, on my first hex (rolled 4 on explore, then 10 on elite table), i encountered "reanimated corpses of forlorn explorers". This creature cannot be evaded. I'm dead in the very beginning.
I do have a question:
When in combat with multi count creatures, is the HP multiplied for each one?
In other words: is this encounter against 64HP with 6 armor and starting out with +7 fight?
Just played thru my first time and died against the swarm behemoth ;_; Still, enjoyed it. Laughed at “mining magnate teen scum” and not being able to evade them. Stopped laughing when they killed my geologist npc hehe.
I had a couple of Qs.
Does armor value go down as i take damage? I didn’t do this but i kept avoiding damage because of it. Which leads to a second related question…
When taking damage from fleeing, do i take my armor value into account? I had armor 6 from a polymer weave armor, so with a 1d4 or 1d6 dmg from a failed flight roll, i ended up not taking any damage ever.
Just done my first try. I’ve escape Ramses and kill the Behemoth ! I really love the simplicity of the gameplay and the way to generate the hexes and delves. So cool !
I have published a free, unofficial expansion: RESTROOM REMAINS!
Expand your delves with 10 new restroom locations, plus additional restroom-related lore and references!
Inspired by iconic restrooms imagined by some of science-fiction's greatest authors, this expansion gives you more reasons to venture into delves as well as additional dramatic hooks for enhancing your own head-canon while adventuring.
Download includes a 13-page PDF appropriate for reading on the toilet, and a condensed single-page reference sheet.
A glorious expansion that brings to light the seedy and sometimes corn-y (depending on the freeze-dried ration most recently eaten) underbelly of Ramses.
hi there, love this game, it’s so tight and evocative. Would you be ok with me (or anyone else) making a hack of this for other settings? No problem if not.
I hadn't originally intended on it, but this has gotten a bit more attention that I ever anticipated, so it's likely! I'd also absolutely love for others to release some stuff in this world. I'm working on a sci fi naval/strike force wargame at the moment, but once that is in playtesting shape, I'm intending on returning to this universe and the solo rpg style.
I read this today and it looks really fun. One question. When looting where it says Loot +2, +3, etc, I assume the modifier is there because the higher the roll, the better the loot?
Also, a big shout out for having a print ready version! This made it so easy to print and make a booklet!
Thanks!! I actually ran it coop with my wife last weekend and it works pretty decently. I did all the enemy rolls in combat and managed random tables on my own, hidden from her, with some playful elaboration to really set the scene.

I’ve been thinking about doing another print run along with some supplemental material. It’d be at least a month or 2 out, but watch here for updates.
I really love this game! Like the mechanics - and love the descriptions i.e. in the random tables!
Curti demais, adoraria traduzir para o portugues brasileiro :D
Had an excellent evening playing a few games of this the other day.

Incredible game! You've captured a lot of what I want out of a hex crawl.
Love it! thx

Absolutely! Just be sure to share it.
Will there be expansions and updates?

Good to know that the game isn't abandoned. It fills me with joy that new experiences will come.
This is amazing! Thanks so much for doing a playthrough.
Also, a big shout out for having a print ready version! This made it so easy to print and make a booklet!
Looks great! And yes, the loot modifiers are because loot is generally better the higher you go.
This looks super cool!
Is there a Print ready version for A4 paper?
Sorry, I've designed everything for US letter, but I will be print copies available for sale next month
Holy cow this game is really cool! I've downloaded quite a few now but this one is definitely a keeper!
Thanks for the kind words!
I saw your game on reddit a little bit ago. I am glad the OSR June Jam inspired you to publish on Itch!
My wife and I run solo games like Four Against Darkness cooperatively. Do you think that would work with this game?
Thanks!! I actually ran it coop with my wife last weekend and it works pretty decently. I did all the enemy rolls in combat and managed random tables on my own, hidden from her, with some playful elaboration to really set the scene.
That sounds really sweet. My kind of date night, haha!
