Tile Grout
A solo dungeon crawl through an abandoned public pool!
Test your luck against the winding labyrinth that forms in a building when the lights go out...
This zine (or either of the non-zine formats) was designed as a fan-made expansion adventure for the Dungeon Hero solo-rpg system where you play as a delinquent student who has been peer pressured into exploring an abandoned public indoor pool, only to find yourself fighting to escape. It is played with dice ranging from d4's to d12's and the Dungeon Hero core rules. If you have another solo-rpg system that works for you, go for it, but it was built with the Dungeon Hero system in mind, so go support the original by Lone Spelunker, which can be found here!
For about half a year I made a lonely highway trip twice a week and passed an abandoned leisure center in a middle-of-nowhere small town every single time. The image of it latched onto my brain with slimy fingers and wouldn't let me go until I made this. Enjoy a sliver of my haunting.
And if you're looking for an immersive experience, I would recommend your favourite 80's hits as background music. Nothin' like running for your life to the tune of "Tainted Love" by Soft Cell.

If you are printing the original zine version of the game, you will need scissors to cut and fold the zine; I would recommend looking up a zine-folding tutorial on Youtube!
