This is a hack of Takuma Okada's Alone in an Ancient City. Please check out their work. 

https://noroadhome.itch.io

You are a traveller alone in a foreign city. You are staying here to practice the language. Explore the city and memorize new vocabulary.  

This is based slightly on the memory palace technique.  

You need a pen and notebook, 1 six sided dice (D6) and a deck of cards. 

Feel free to contact me with any feedback, as this is my first game. I hope you find it both useful and enjoyable.

I started this as a quick, simple game but the prompts encouraged depth that created a much larger story.

I finished the game and am still writing the story, enjoying it very much. Thanks for the thoughtful details that prompt some really fun world-building.

Enjoying this game quite a lot as I'm learning a second language. The only confusion I have is that "an experience" seems to be actually a collection of "experiences" in terms of the cards you flip over, at least that's how the rules read to me. But once I decided to interpret the rules that way, I still had fun and it is actually helping me remember vocabulary. 

Thank you for this fun little journaling game.
