QUEST-O-GRAPHS: Pencil Board Games – Volume 1 (2024)

An all new type of "puzzle book" that uses board game mechanics. All you need is a pencil! You are a wanderer, exploring different places around the globe. Each level is a single page, providing a new location complete with its own unique name, image, logline, foliage, food/drink, weapon, and map tailored to that destination. Move throughout the map, opening and closing room doors (with "X" marks) on the square grid spaces as you progress on your trek. Inside the rooms are icons corresponding to your inventory below the board. Rooms can contain villains, helpful sidekicks, resources to save and spend tactically, useful items to maneuver safely, and more. The space you're currently on often determines which direction you can move next, so some strategy is important. Excluding the ones on tunnel spaces, if you can open and close all room doors on the map, you win! —description from the designer
