Seven Days to Crown a King

Seven days. Seven seals. A kingdom waiting for your answer.

Arrive in the winter city of Frostholm as House Vellan's overlooked envoy, carrying a mandate to help choose the next ruler. Over seven days of court intrigue, contested succession, and a slow-burning conspiracy, you will gather evidence, negotiate promises, build a coalition, and decide what those promises are worth when the Kingsmoot finally meets.

Seven Days to Crown a King is a solo WAYPOINT adventure by Matthew David. Follow numbered choices, test your character's abilities, and keep a record of the people, obligations, and evidence that shape your route. Its three acts span 320 numbered sections, with six city Zones to explore, political and physical struggles, nonviolent options, and sealed endings to discover through play. For one player; no game master or group required.
