Keep the flame burning against the encroaching dark, and pray that the light is enough to guide you through the storms of your own isolation.

Lighthouse at the End of the World is a haunting, evocative 44-page standalone solo journaling roleplaying game of isolation, duty, and quiet survival. Released in 2023 by Peculiar Print Shop (written by Ken Lowery), this atmospheric zine casts you as the solitary keeper of a remote, weather-beaten lighthouse perched on a desolate rock at the edge of the known world. Using a standard deck of playing cards, a six-sided die, and a journal, you will record your daily struggles to maintain the light, endure the relentless elements, and preserve your sanity as the vast, uncaring ocean whispers secrets from the dark.

The game’s mechanics beautifully mirror the monotonous yet high-stakes routine of lighthouse keeping. The gameplay loop centers on your daily chores—hauling coal, polishing lenses, and keeping the gears turning—all while managing your dwindling "Oil" and "Resolve." As you draw cards from the deck, you face environmental hazards, mechanical breakdowns, and surreal, psychological phenomena that challenge your perception of reality. Whether you are weathering a historic tempest or deciphering strange patterns in the migration of seabirds, this game provides a deeply introspective, slow-burn narrative experience about finding purpose in the face of absolute solitude.
