You are an investigative journalist, down on your luck and at the end of your rope. You got let go from your news agency and haven’t gotten any meaningful work for several months, so the bills have piled up and you’re about to be thrown out of your already crumbling apartment. You know that if you don’t find a case to close soon, you’re not going to get another chance.
The Black Oak is a solo GMless journaling game in which you play a destitute journalist trying to solve a strange murder. You'll have to struggle against the weather, starvation, and the influence of the black oak itself if they want to have a chance of solving the case.
This game is based on The Wretched by Chris Bissette and was created for Wretched Jam. The Black Oak is directly but loosely inspired by Safe and Also No Fear by Slaughter Beach, Dog.
