The Wandering Road

Follow the clues. Choose your way through.

Ride a quiet road on horseback, stop at houses and camps, and solve puzzles to find your way onward. Your journal keeps the clues and supplies you discover. Some strangers need help; some doors are best left closed.

A rockfall blocks the first chapter. In the second, a goblin chief controls the pass. Sliding blocks, watchful cup games, lockpicking and seven other puzzle types return with new challenges. Goblin chases give you three mistakes before the journey ends.
