The Crystals of Z’leth is a solo adventure of exploration, discovery, and survival that works with Dungeons & Dragons: 5th Edition.

  • Six chapters and an epilogue
  • 575+ story sections, notes, encounters, and extras
  • 7 new magic items to collect
  • Many monsters to battle
  • 55+ original works of art

The jungle holds many secrets. It will do anything to keep them.

You are part of an expedition to the ancient city of Z’leth. Few who have found the city have ever returned. Those that did make it out alive talk of a lost civilization, ancient secrets, and crystals of great power.

But all may not be as it seems, and there are secrets beneath secrets. Solve puzzles, survive ancient defenses, and manage your limited resources to uncover the mystery of the crystals.

Pick your own path. Play your own 5e character. No DM, maps, or minis required.

We are making this for you if you want more of your favorite TTRPG and would rather play than DM yourself in the downtime between sessions. The Crystals of Z'leth is designed for characters between levels 1 to 4. 

  •  Play your own 5e character. Made however you usually make one. The story is crafted so that all characters can succeed - or fail. 
  •  Take your own path through an interactive story where your decisions have consequences.
  •  Fight monsters, cast spells, and find treasure within an original story.
  •  Make progress with loot and experience that you keep in a regular tabletop game.
This version includes the PDF and EPUB versions of the adventure.

  • What Is a Solo 5e Adventure?

    A solo 5e adventure is a single-person interactive story that uses the game mechanics of Dungeons & Dragons: 5th Edition to play through a story as the hero.

    • Play your own 5e character made however you usually make one. The story is crafted so that all characters can succeed - or fail.
    • Take your own path through an interactive story where your decisions have consequences.
    • Fight monsters, cast spells, and find treasure within an original story.
    • Make progress with loot and experience that you keep in a regular tabletop game.

      The experience allows players to be a lone hero solving problems and overcoming challenges without a DM or party.

      However, each solo adventure more than a single-player game. Each story is designed to work with existing D&D 5e games as either a downtime activity between sessions or a way to add flavor to a new character prior to their appearance.
  • How the Game Works

    As you take your journey through The Crystals of Z'leth, you will have a chance to do all the things you probably love about TTRPGs, including rolling dice and choosing your own path through the adventure.

    • Interact with NPCs and your environment
    • Use your skills and abilities to overcome challenges
    • Cast spells, use magic items, and activate your class features
    • Fight monsters and other evil-doers


    All this works by following on-page prompts within the story and applying off-the-page effects to improve your character's chances of success. 


    The game mechanics will be familiar to anyone playing D&D 5e. From skill checks and saving throws to attack rolls and spell damage, everything about The Crystals of Z'leth is designed to give you the same thrill as a session at DM's table but whenever you want to play.

    Plus, re-play the adventure to explore different options. Every choice you make in this solo adventure has some kind of consequence, so take each new character down their own path.

Had a blast

I played through both modules as a fighter and I had a great time on both. Who would've thought to pair a choose your own adventure book with D&D. The concept is brilliant! I'm looking forward to the next adventures they release.

Eh...

Is interesting but i just dont ask for devolution cause is pdf, but i have problem with translation web who make me to think the price was low than is for my country. Have a good plot but need a dm spirit for playing with the npc's and insert the character without look like out of place.

I don't see in the shop but it would be good if have demos to play, a little part to understand how work the book.

Great solo experience

The writing and plot were pretty good. The combat was a bit of a statcheck in comparison to normal combat, but this is understandable. Would recommended for everyone who just wants to experience a short story in a dnd setting. Will be looking out for similar products. (Tip use the epub the links are great!)

Just what I needed!

I'm new to D&D and I wanted to practice before diving into our campaign. This story is a lot of fun to play. It's like a Choose Your Own Adventure with your character, which is a lot of fun! I look forward to more of these!
