Journeyman

The most promising prospect...
That’s what they used to call you.
Then came one punch.
One punch and you were out cold.
One punch and your career was never the same.
Now, you're just another boxer chasing faded glory. Now they call you...

Journeyman is a print-and-play solo role-playing game where you play as a boxer who's nearing retirement. You have 10 fights left in you, maybe even less. The problem is, you're drowning in debt, $6500 in total.

Becoming a champion isn't even a dream anymore. You're just trying to pay off your debt.

But deep inside, there’s a flame that hasn’t gone out yet. Faint but still burning. After all, it only takes one punch.

• Solo Roleplaying Game about sports drama
• 45–90 minutes per full career (10 fights)
• Fast and cinematic fights with simple but tense dice mechanics
• Optional light journaling, record your fights, scars, and glory
• You'll need: A set of six-sided dice (d6s) and writing utensils

Journeyman was inspired by HOME, created by Nick Gralewicz of Deep Dark Games, and Hajime no Ippo by George Morikawa.

Journeyman was created for the One-Page RPG Jam 2025.
