Swindler's Ward (beta)
Swindler's Ward is a solo tabletop roleplaying game that puts you in the shoes of a scheming scoundrel with a small child to look after. You play by making notes on a story sheet as if keeping a diary. You are assisted by prompts that represent various criminal opportunities available to the Swindler as well as important events in their Ward's life. The game is still in development. The current version 0.3 is fully playable and most of the content is in place, but the writing is not quite finalized. I am grateful for any feedback - you can submit your thoughts using this form.
