Pathos, arcana, calamity…
and the infinite loneliness of power.

Are you willing to sacrifice everything in the altar of ambition?

Text that says "What is the Magus?"

The Magus is a solo journaling RPG about the sweeping journey of a wizard ready to sacrifice all. In this game, you use dice and pen to generate prompts that inform what happens in the story. A

You will navigate strange encounters and confront complex opportunities for learning spells—or cultivating tenuous bonds. Fueled by ambition and purpose, your Magus embarks on a journey for ultimate power. But sacrifices must be made. Must you relentlessly pursue your goals, or do you cling on to those that you love?

Unlike multiplayer campaigns, you set the pace and drive the story through introspection and writing; using the power of rolls and prompts that spur your control of your wizard’s destiny. And unlike many solo journaling games, the Magus is crunchy — you will use all your dice to play and manage your character, for unparalleled structure to your narrative.

Text saying "What's different in the second edition?"

The second edition is powered by the Oracle, a 78-card deck which holds the Spell and Bond prompts, plus artwork that can inspire your writing. A digital version plus an online playable version of the Oracle will be available.

The second edition also comes with brand-new prompts for a fantasy urban setting, plus rules for duet play and incorporating the Oracle with momatoes games. Look forward to the release on April 2025.
