I love this brilliant game with my whole heart. The espionage, the physicality, the creepy ass “prayers”, the most perfect book choice for the assignment, the defacing of said book … it’s inspired. Thanks for this treasure! Few games actively inspire me to design one of my own, but this does. Did I mention I love it?
This is absolutely wild and I love it. Definitely doing this solo to create an artifact to then make a hunt around in the Monster of the Week RPG. Such a cool idea to create a physical artifact with a solo RPG.
I dunno about best, but the first book has the most normal environments, so if you want a modern setting to match the surveillance conspiracy vibe then I'd go with that. It should just be called "Where's Wally/Waldo" in stores, but make sure to get one that was printed in 1997 or later so it has all the characters (this is mainly an issue to be aware of if you're buying second-hand, I doubt anywhere's selling pre-1997 copies first-hand, but check just in case).

Hell yeah, thank you for the kind words! That it inspired you to work on something of your own is the greatest compliment.
Played this game at GoPlay Northwest with some other folks (we each had our own book and played in parallel). Had a wonderful time with it!
Hell yeah, thank you for checking it out!

How did that work out?
Is there a best or recommended book for this?
