Lantern & Ledger — 3 Solo Journaling RPGs (One-Page Anthology PDF)

Lantern & Ledger is an anthology of three original, complete one-page solo journaling tabletop RPGs: The Last Correspondence, Embercount, and Tideglass. Each is played alone with a journal, a pencil, and a single six-sided die — no other rulebook or system required.
Every game includes setup, a short turn loop, a six-entry oracle table, six journaling prompts, and a clear ending condition. A typical session runs about 20 minutes.
What's included:
- onepage_ttrpg_zine_pack_v1.pdf — the combined, laid-out book (cover, contents, all 3 games), with a searchable and copyable text layer
- zine_01_rules_source.md, zine_02_rules_source.md, zine_03_rules_source.md — Markdown source for each game, so you can print, re-theme, or adapt the text yourself
- cover_art_pack.png — the anthology cover art
AI disclosure: the rules text (premise, setup, turn loop, ending) was drafted with AI assistance and edited into final form. The oracle and journaling-prompt tables were written by an AI language model from each game's full premise, then checked for grammar and repeated phrasing across the games. The cover and title-band artwork was generated with an AI image model from text prompts written for each game, with one image chosen per game from eight candidates; no text is baked into the images. All content is original — no third-party game system, setting, or IP is used. Made with AI-assisted tools; curated and tested by a human.
