Short Stacked: A Monster TF Journaling Game
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android
A Monster Transformation Solo Journaling Game
By April ‘Duhad’ Wolfinger
With art provided by Balileart
NOTE: This game is NOT explicitly adult in nature, however there are options to lean in that direction and it is thus probably not fully appropriate for anyone under the age of 18
A 51 page PDF containing simple rules for a tarot based solo journaling game about a fantasy adventurer turning into a goblin, kobold, imp or similar monster with 22 causes, events, partners/characters, reactions to the changes, weird twists and additional transformations and finally epilogues all based on the major arcane of a classic tarot deck.
A 12 step, non linear transformation, intended to represent the day by day process of going from heroic fantasy character to various types of monster, not just little ones, though that IS the intended experience.
Alternative rules for playing with dice or playing cards.
Some cute art of goblins, kobolds and imps provided by Balileart.
Plus an HTML reference sheet including all prompts, transformations and a digital tarot card drawer!

is incredible that I found this game. I didnt play it but I would like to play it some day. I love TF and I found this. incredible.
Thank you! If your a fan of TF and want to try more things like it, I've made a list on my page of some of the TF solo games that helped inspire Short Stacked and if your looking for more Darling Demon Eclipse, IFeelOdd and USDucktape all make really good TF RPG stuff!
What a remarkably useful reply! None of them, or you, were on the collections of transformation games on Itch. I guess they're sleeping on the TTRPGs and Solo Journaling Games!
So now I've got four interesting folks to check out, thanks to Frostlock sharing the journal they made from your game and linking back here, and you sharing the names of your peers.
I'll have to take a look and see if I can pass things on to others. ^.^
Perhaps odder still, only a moment after I posted this I realized I had already +follow'd you here, but not looked through your work yet, because I'm particularly fond of the Aphrodisia games!
Oh! I'm so glad you like my older work as well! Heh
I was lead writer on the first Aphrodisia game and for TF Tycoon! Worked with Judoo allot back in the day before shifting over to more of these pen and paper games.
