Friends We Make Along the Way

Hoist the sails, avoid treacherous sirens, and make friends along the way!

Friends We Make Along the Way is a journalling and map drawing game made during the one-page RPG Jam 2022. Players take turn plotting a course for their ship, and describing & drawing discoveries they make on their voyage.

This game features light rules with a heavy focus on storytelling and player freedom.  The prompts are often ambiguous and overlapping other prompts, so there is a lot of flexibility when it comes to discovering new locations. If something is not 100% clear, just go with whatever feels like the most fun! (Check out the screenshot for an example playthrough.)
