FAQ

What is Hexplore24?

I’ve kicked off 2024 by dedicating each day to playing #hexplore24, inspired by Monsters & Mazes. This solo adventure, a West Marches-style hexcrawl, uniquely intertwines real-time with game time — each day in the real world equates to one in-game day.

For the full background on why I’m doing this, read my blog post Hexploring 2024.

How will you be logging your Hexplore24?

I spend a lot of time on computers, and I hope to have my hexplore24 be a rare daily time when I can write pen to paper.

I also hope for this blog to be about plenty more than my hexplore24 game, and I don’t want the blog feed to be dominated by possibly 366 snippets of gameplay.

So, my plan is this:

• Every week I will type up and create non-blog posts for the past week’s Hexplore24 entries.
• I will then, most likely, publish a blog post with a summary of what’s been going on, and a discussion of any issues, ideas, or other topics my gameplay that week has inspired.
• To keep things easy to navigate, I will be backdating my Hexplore24 posts to the day of the year they were hand-written on, but expect them to be published in batches.
• This system will avoid the Hexplore24 posts from ending up in my RSS feed, but you can always find them by searching for the #hexplore24 tag.
