Nic Angell, an author and illustrator, created the successful adventure book series Colostle. The latest edition of the series takes readers underground into massive dungeons where they must fight to survive. Angell expressed nervousness about expanding the game, not only in scope and world potential but also in gameplay.
Colostle is a solo roleplaying game where readers journal about their experiences, powered by a standard deck of cards. Each person’s adventure is determined by the cards they draw, leading them to encounter different rooms and creatures. The game is described as part game and part creative-writing exercise by Mr. Angell, who is fascinated by the new ideas and adventures players come up with in his world.
Angell’s loyal fans have already supported him through an online subscription service to release the latest dungeon expansion of the series. Feedback about the new book has been positive, with Angell continuing to create chapters and release them sequentially for patrons to see before the world sees it as a complete book. With the success of Colostle, Angell dreams of bringing his world to life on television or in cinema and hopes that someone may be interested in adapting it for the screen.
Overall, Nic Angell’s Colostle series has captured the imagination of readers and players alike, taking them on unique adventures within a world he created. With
