Are you looking for a fresh way to explore solo roleplaying and creative writing? Threshold: Broken Orbit is a “write-to-play” story booklet that blends immersive RPG-style choices with narrative prompts.
Players pick a character and a setting, then respond to guiding questions and make decisions that shape the story. For example:
- The Memory Thief: Equipped with black-market neural tech, they steal fragments of other people’s memories—but they might have got more than what they bargained for.
- The Colony Market: A shady, bustling settlement carved out of cargo bays, where scavengers, merchants and smugglers trade vital supplies— and information your character needs.
- They Know: You’re not anonymous anymore. Your enemies have your name, face, past. How do you hide from a universe that remembers?
Even without a traditional game master, you’ll create compelling narratives and explore suspenseful, unpredictable scenarios.
Why it works:
Threshold encourages creative thinking, storytelling, and problem-solving, all in a solo play format. It’s perfect for writers, RPG fans, or anyone who enjoys structured yet imaginative adventures.
