Pocket Book Adventures

Overview

Pocket Book Adventures is a solo-only, minimalist dungeon crawler that only needs the book and a pencil to play. Rather than using dice or cards to generate randomness, Pocket Book Adventures introduces a simple, dexterity-based system that balances skill and luck for truly engaging gameplay.

Explore dozens of maps, encounter unique monsters, level up, grab loot, and solve puzzles in this tiny, campaign-driven dungeon crawler!

Simple Movement

Each turn, move 1-4 spaces in a straight line (you can turn if you hit terrain) and mark your new location. Pick up any loot or items you pass over. If you end near a monster, initiate combat with them.

Point & Write Combat

Combat is simple, but engaging. Put your pencil on the dot above the enemy's icon. Then - without looking at the page - lift your pencil and aim for the center of their target.

Where you land determines how much damage you take and even if you trigger the enemy's special ability!

Light Puzzles

Some maps are open world, while others have more restricted movement rules that create map-wide puzzles. If you want to open the chest for those levels, you'll need to figure out the right path to get there!

Boss Battles

Throughout your adventures, you'll encounter powerful boss monsters, each with their own unique combat rules and win conditions!
