What is Brambletrek?

Brambletrek is a GM-less RPG rulebook that allows you to play a single-player or group adventure campaign through the vast and incredible world of the Akeroth.

The Forest of Hyill is a forest that is impossibly big to your little Mousefolk, known in this world as Gnawborn. You will choose your legacy, and backstory and set off from the village of Brambletrek.

Unlike traditional multiplayer TTRPGs like Dungeons & Dragons or Pathfinder, a GM-less RPG offers a unique solo experience without a game master. These RPGs use a game book, a deck of playing cards, and prompts for you to navigate.

You embody your character, make decisions, and write about your adventures in a personal journal. This self-guided approach allows for imagination, storytelling, and your journey in Akeroth

Build your story of who your legendary Gnawborn is, and what they discover out in the vast Forests of Hyhill.
