Djinn's Delight – a solo pen & paper RPG

Djinn’s Delight

A solo journaling RPG of twisted wishes and poetic ruin.

What Is This Game?

You are a malicious, immortal djinn, bound to grant wishes—but never kindly. Mortals come to you desperate, greedy, or broken, and you give them exactly what they asked for… in the worst possible way.

In Djinn’s Delight, you’ll roll dice to uncover what your latest mortal desires. Then, with ink and cruelty, you’ll twist their dreams into ruin.

Three wishes. One victim. Endless delight.

How to Play

You are the bitter djinn who grants three wishes in the most punishing way imaginable.

You’ll need – A pen and two six-sided dice.

1. Who’s the Wisher – Roll 1d6 on the Wisher Table. Let their flaws inspire your cruelty.
2.  Grant Their Three Wishes – For each wish, roll 2 x 6 and consult the Wish Table. Record the numbers in Wishes Granted.
3. Twist Each Wish – Corrupt every desire in the most ironic, devastating way you can imagine. Their suffering is your delight.
4. The Aftermath – When the final wish is granted, pause—take pride in your work and how you have altered the world
