I always liked the Monty Python one, and want to try the pirates themed one. Fluxx games are really fun indeed.

Depending on what I am looking for:
From this same thread I am sure I will use https://www.gnoosic.com in the future.
This looks great. I’m looking forward to getting the finished version.
Spending time making battlemaps is gaming too! But I totally understand what you mean.
Yes, I spent some hours (time passed quickly) checking some games in the workshop. I’m quite impressed with some of the findings.
I just bought it today, so I really would like them to be welcome!
As a main solo player, do you have any suggestions? I got it to test new games before buying, but I can see myself using it exclusively for some specific games with long setups, so I can pause mid game to continue later.
Or just the website if you can’t support the developers https://goblin.tools/ No need to install anything, it works great using the browser.
I found about it not long ago (also because my partner suggested it: "you may like this - Like? I love it!)
I can’t pick just one band, however, I clearly remember the first time I listened to
I’m sure there are more if I think for longer.
I recently played a small campaing with Cairn and I enjoyed what these systems with a few abilities achieve. Barrow Delver is a nice set of solo rules for it.
Mausritter is a great intro to the “OSR spirit”: due to the player being a mouse, you won’t be a hero for long if you run straight to every dangerous situation. Einzelmaus exists to play it solo.
It was really good to be honest.
Congrats! Now don’t stop driving, try at least around your home to keep practicing.
That’s a pretty good point. Time to read it again! (and this time I’ll play it)
Mausritter is a mix of some easy systems, very “kid friendly”, it actually won some awards because of it. The Tiny D6 systems are also good and easy to learn: two dice, if you have an attribute that helps, use three.
And I agree with you. I’m one of those playing solo boardgames and RPGs to avoid more screen time
There are discussions about boardgames and TTRPGs in Gaming, even if that community is mainly focused on videogames
It depends on the amount of roleplay vs journaling you would like to try. My first try was with D100 and Four against the Darkness, but they were closer to a boardgame from my point of view. After that I tried Scarlet Heroes, one of the best solo rules and tables to play any classic DND game. Or anything, the tables and oracles can be used in a lot of different games. Now, the standard suggestion is Ironsworn because it’s great and easy to play (although the book is big, everything is variations of one move). OH, did I mention it’s free?
And then you can find Mythic GME 2ed, probably the best tool available to play any TTRPG solo. It’s really worth it, but there are others easier to understand (I’d suggest One Page Solo Engine).
It depends on what you’d like to play: What setting? Where would you put the focus? More throwing dice? More journaling? Adventures? Epic fantasy? Sci-fi?
MQTT, a protocol so machines can talk between each other. Mainly for IoT devices. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MQTT
I started with no TTRPG experience at all around a year ago. There are some games (like D100 or Four Against Darkness) closer to a boardgame than an actual TTRPG. You throw dice and go with the results, no need to roleplay.
Regarding solo boardgames, I would say games where you play alone together, like each player doing it’s own thing in the board with minimal interaction or minimal rules modifications. Spirit Island already mentioned is one great example, Cartographers, Sprawlopolis or Agropolis, Resist!, One deck dungeon… seriously, there is an amazing amount of options depending on your taste (deck building, throwing dice, etc.).
For solo RPG? The standard suggestion nowadays is Ironsworn to be honest. And it’s free! I wasn’t a big fan at the beginning, so I started with Scarlet Heroes, it has everything you need to play pretty much any OSR game.
Then there are lots of specific games for solo, especially journaling games. Or using game master emulators you can play almost anything (Mythic GME is the most famous for a good reason).
What would you like to try? I’m quite new on this area but I might be able to suggest a couple of books. There are a lot of tools available to play anything available in the market.
Amazing band, one of the best gigs I’ve gone to this year.
