Don't Go Following Me
A downloadable game
"Don't Go Following Me" is a solo journaling Micro-TTRPG that takes you on a journey far from your normal life, I would hope at least. At 11:30PM you receive instruction about an illicit delivery you must make, and Must Make Alone, by midnight. If only it were so easy in execution.
D10, 30 minutes, something to write with or record yourself with
Roll 1D10 to determine
– who you are
– what are you doing
– why are you doing it
from the provided 10 slot tables.
Then set your timer in five minute increments, begin your journey. For each of the 6 Questions you have 5 minutes to answer them/ solve whatever complications arise. If you are not successful in doing that OR you fail a roll in the questions then you incur a penalty in the form of a Follower. Instead of answering the next question you go to the B version of the question (instead of going from 1 to 2A, you go from 1 to 2B, for example). You will be given chances to lose the follower(s) through successful rolls. If you lose all followers again you can resume back on the A track of questions. You need to be rid of your follower(s) by the end of the game or you failed your mission.
If you make it through to the end within the total 30 minutes with no followers with you you win! Congratulations, you sneak back home after the deed is done and nobody ever needs to know.
This game was designed live on the podcast 10Min TTRPGs (read: Ten Minute TTRPGs) February 2024. I really hope you enjoy this game (please do let me know how it goes I want to hear all about your adventures!) and the show!
A content heads up is this is a thriller type game, timed and with fictional stakes designed to ignite your sense of urgency and rapid problem solving. There is a possibility you will not find success in your mission and there are fictional consequences to that. Please play safely.

This was an interesting game! I didnt survive my first playthrough but it was fun trying to flesh out successes and failures as the clock winds down.
