One Page Haven
A downloadable game
A CHARMING COASTAL TOWN WHERE
SOMETHING SINISTER AWAITS...
ONE PAGE HAVEN is a solo draw/sketch journaling
role-playing game inspired by tales of cosmic horror and films like Stepford Wives and Perfect Blue. You’ll play as the newest resident of a wholesome and pleasant Town by the sea, where something ominous lurks beneath the surface. Roll the dice, complete the prompts, and record everything on a single sheet of paper. However, a word of caution:
If you run out of space, YOU DIE
If you run out of Luck, YOU DIE
The gameplay is based on system created by M. Kirin for her ONE PAGE LEFT Series of solo ttrpgs. Create your character, the terrifying Apparition hunting them, and see where your story takes you. In the end, you’ll possess a harrowing account akin to clues and notes found in survival horror games like Resident Evil and Corpse Party. The game also features substitute playboards - so your time in Town never really has to end, does it?

Hey there! Here it is my first playtrhought of One Page Heaven. I Have to say it is my first time playing this kind of micro games but it was a very fun experience. The game have lots of posibilities and it's very replayable since there is a lot of prompts. I did my game in spanish since it's my native languaje but all the english vocabulary of the game it's very easy to understand. A very entertaining and creative game!
That is a BEYOND spectacular playsheet. You really brought the full horror out for all to see! Thank you so much!
Not a devlog, I just wanted to have fun with my own game and explore the artistry of it.
I interpret this playthrough as a video game designer, thinking he's smarter than most, having tracked down a creator he idolizes from his childhood. He learns this creator, Edward Marsh, was last heard from in the Town and moves there to meet his hero (and maybe learn from him). My apparition, the Carved Soldier, was relentless. I feel that once my character realized that Edward Marsh had gone missing in addition to the supernatural stuff he realized he wasn't the mastermind sleuth he thought he was. He wasn't even a match for the Apparition in the end.
I liked focusing on the aesthetics and drawing a bit more than in the example ones I made for the game page. That was really freeing.
I playtested an early prototype, and after finally getting to try the finished product, I am really impressed! This game can go a lot of different places based on the roll of a die, and the alternative story tables included greatly expand the possibilities for an already very replayable game.
Below was my first playthrough
And this was my second playthrough:
As you can see from these two characters I played, there's so much potential in your final result. Nearly every prompt gives you the choice to either describe or draw something. My first instinct was that writing would be faster, but I soon realized that drawing often saved much more space- and thus gave me more chances to play before running out of real estate! Plus, as I draw some of these pictures, it forced my mind to think deeper on what world I'm building in my head, and how to fit the pieces together. It was a really fun way of immersing me! On my second run through, (the computer screen one) I began to think about the page itself as an art project, and how I wanted to make it look like a finished story-telling piece, so I tried to connect visually with my specific character and how I could bring that out to the page. The end result was totally unique from my first! I had a lot of fun, and even shed a literal tear (!!!) when I had to type out his final words.
Give it a try! That's my recommendation, it's fun fast and free!!!
Your playsheets are AMAZING! OMG! Thank you 100x over for sharing these! My jaw is just on the floor.
