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

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.

  • 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.

This book rocks!!!

I have to say that this book really rocks; this adventure is so fun and engaging, but I must say that both me and my character went through it in the last part of the game. I got whole bunch of loot, but my character and I will need a whole lot of therapy.

I really enjoyed the adventure, in the future it would be also really good to see some higher level adventures around 9-10 aince that is also a break point where the Characters get some power spike.

Wonderful!

Being chronically ill, I find it very hard to get out to play dnd with a group. I saw Obvious Mimic being advertised and thought I’d give it a go… I don’t regret it in the slightest! Played through the whole thing in 3 days— on the edge of my seat for most of it! It’s made me so happy to have an accessible way to play my favourite game. Looking forward to the other adventures!

Another one down

At this point I had already finished the Wolves of Langston. It was so much fun I purchased this one. Took me two days to play through. Probably should have taken longer but I was having so much fun I got wrapped up in the story.

As a forever DM I rarely if ever get to play a character of my own. That being the case I have a file of created characters at lvl1 with backstories and attention to detail paid in their creation. I decided to make them mainstays in my own world as prominent NPCs that show up from time to time with reputations of their own. To do thus they needed to go on adventures. Solo play is, for the moment, my only option.

When a child I always loved choose your own adventure books. They were something different and always had you turning pages.

My need to engage my characters in adventure and the enjoyment I've found in choose your own adventure novels found a common home in these adventures offered by Obvious Mimic, and are satisfied with resounding applause!

I highly recommend these outstanding products to every player! Bravo, good people.
