Lighthouse at the End of the World

Lighthouse at the End of the World is a solo journaling game. With a die, a tower, a deck of cards, a map and a handful of coins, you will reveal why you came to be here, document the uncanny perils and numbing drudgery of life in the lighthouse, and unravel the mystery of your ghostly companions. By game's end, you will not only have written your own story full of faint hope and grim perseverance, but also the stories of some of the other souls who perished here before you.

Slow Burn

Alot of fun but a definite slow burn game for me. I took my time but the gaming gods decided to test me on every choice I made. Legitimately it's a great atmospheric game, truly enjoyable

Thought provoking

This is my first solo journaling game and I was really surprised at the direction the story took. I had an idea about what I believed my story was going to be. It took me in a whole different direction and I loved it. The gmae mechanics were surprising and add a tension I didn't expect. Really wonderful!

Deep and cathartic

First of all I’m impressed with the extremely fast shipping! So great bc I was so eager to dive into this game. It’s hard to describe why I love it so much but the prompts are so thought provoking and they fuel my experience. After playing this game each session, I end up thinking about it so much it stays with me.
I heard about it from tabletop’s IG
