About the game

What you do in a play session

Quests Over Coffee: Expansion #08 – Anniversary arrives to celebrate the first birthday of one of the most charming solo games on the indie scene. The designer originally released the base game as a birthday gift, and to everyone's surprise it built a dedicated community that exceeded expectations. To mark the occasion, nine new cards are added: two quests, five items, one environment and one companion. Each play session still revolves around rolling dice, picking strategic items and following quest card instructions, but now with richer thematic variety and fresh combo options. The game requires at least ten quest cards and six item cards, so newcomers should start with the base set. If you want to use environments, make sure to consult the updated rulebook (version 1.2 or later). The core mechanic is simple – dice rolling to overcome challenges – yet item selection and quest order inject a layer of strategy that keeps luck from dominating. Moreover, the system is open: players can design their own quests and items, extending the experience indefinitely. Perfect for short sessions (typically 15‑30 minutes) and for anyone seeking a solo challenge that mixes humor, fantasy and a dash of risk. Being Print & Play, you just download, print and play, which makes distribution a breeze. In short, the expansion celebrates the original's success, delivering fresh content without complicating the rules, while encouraging player creativity.
