Working Ogre-Time is a short dungeon-based adventure that takes 20-30 minutes to play. You play Hog, an ogre who is awfully bored with cleaning adventurers out of traps. Throughout the adventure you'll have the opportunity to be a proper ogre - a terror to friends and foes alike.

This piece was a Merit Award winner for the 2024/2025 Lindenbaum Prize for short gamebook fiction. You can see the competition (and the other excellent entries) here:

This is phenomenal —— the writing is witty like early T&T solos and the ruleset is really clean and intuitive. I’d love to see more of it! :DD

Thanks! There will be more in the future, hopefully soon.
