The Lonely March Home is a solo tabletop roleplaying game. Like most tabletop roleplaying games, you take on the identity of a fictional character of your creation. 

You will use tools of chance (playing cards, dice, coins) to interact with the world, generating circumstances and reacting as your character would. Then, write down what happens in a character journal.

The Lonely March Home has no levels, classes, abilities, or powers. This is a solo journaling game, where the point is for you to tell a story about a haggard character in dire circumstances. The tools of play help guarantee that no two sessions are alike.

Simply put, the rules of play generate circumstances, and you use your imagination (and a pen) to fill in the rest.

How and what you choose to write is one of your most powerful tools for revealing your character. This is about what is important to your character and what isn’t, what is easy to talk about, and what is painful and elusive.
