[theartofmadeline]

lil 16 page zine that i made at the coffee shop this weekend! a sort of pick your path style mini game, because i love wizards + interactive fiction. hope you get out of the wizard dungeon!!

Reason why you should play solo games :

You can play without having to find a day when all the group can be here.

[tails-of-a-dragon-rider]

Do you like making magic for your settings, but need ideas for what symbols you should use? Want to make sigils, but the methods available just don't hit right with you? Do you want to roleplay as a mage solving people's problems with spells and gylphs?

Well, this solo RPG may be your ticket to success in at least some of those things!

GLYPH, as stated by its itch.io page, is "...a single player adventure in runic magic, an exercise in creativity, and a supplement to add language and artistry into a variety of tabletop roleplaying games." It was made by the Oddments game company.

I've been watching the progress and creation of the RPG since its first posting and honestly, I love it! The ideas are simple, but creatively inspiring and fun to work with! The structure is minimal, but it is just enough to start your own ideas and make your work personal to you.

I'm not very good at explaining how good it is, but here's a page preview of what I have done so far!

It's only $5 and it's pretty obscure, but I highly recommend it! (This isn't sponsored or anything, I'm completely unconnected to Oddments or any of their workers.)

want to play some swamp/bog/wetland themed games?

May I suggest my recent 3 ttrpgs? They're all solo-journalling rpgs, and no prior wetland knowledge is required!

'so, you're a small patch of moss in a big bog...'

a micro solo rpg about being moss facing the inevitability of becoming peat. explore grief, mortality, and inevitability.

'the bog eternal'

a game about being a bog fighting against people trying to harm you, with only your natural traits. totally not an allegory for anything beyond that... I'd totally tell you if it was, deeeefinitely not an allegory for transness, nope.

'you're going to your ideal wetland'

a game about creating and traveling to your dream wetland, emotions about climate justice, and naming that wonderful place.

For 5$ you can help support trans rights in Florida and receive 500 TTRPG’s including Wanderhome, Thirsty Sword Lesbians, Maharlika RPG, Gubat Banwa, and literally hundreds more.

Easiest 5$ I’ve ever spent.

First post- hello!

I noticed that tumblr has surprisingly little in the way of a solo ttrpg community, despite that seeming like exactly the type of hobby that this site lends itself toward?

I kept thinking how nice it would be if there were some sort of “hub” blog where people could share cool stuff from their solo game, find tips and resources, and otherwise explore the solo ttrpg hobby. Eventually I realized that I’d I wanted this blog to exist so much, I ought to make it myself.

Things here are still a work in progress, but I can’t wait to hear about your game! Any solo (or solo-curious) adventurer is welcome to join the guild.

Submissions: The Solo Adventurer's Guild welcomes submissions! If you would like to share a story from your solo game, a character or location that you are excited about, or really anything about your game at all; all I ask is that you include what game you're playing, and that you keep the submission PG-13.

Have extra planners around? Check out Project Ecco, a solo journaling game of time-travel and cosmic horror.

I did a live flip through of the game on Twitch! You can find my flip through below!

Project ECCO is a game of time travel and cosmic horror—a solo journaling game with a twist. Time travel across the pages of a planner, writing in and marking up the dates based on prompts as you go, ultimately creating an artifact of your travels through time. 

You work for the mysterious organization known only as The Agency , tasked with tracking a time-consuming entity throughout an entire year. 

In the end, will you destroy the Entity? Do you dare question the Agency? Can you find yourself?

New Solo RPG: The Tower in the Meadow

The Tower in the Meadow is a single-player RPG utilising the For Truth's Sake system pioneered by @hmooncreates

You have been invited into a mysterious, magical tower to de-mystify life there. As you prepare an account of your months in residence, you'll befriend all manner of mages, spirits, and perhaps even learn a little bit about gardening from the resident dragon!

You can get it below for its standard price of $1.99

OR if that's a bit much for you right now, here's a special code to get it for 20c!

And if you'd prefer a code to get it totally free, I can do that too! Check out the link below:

[ravensshire]

This is a free game that will allow DMs to create interesting dungeons with rich ecologies and histories.

[damsels-n-dice]

This game is a message.

This place is not a place of honor... no highly esteemed deed is commemorated here... nothing valued is here. 

Do you think about long term nuclear waste warnings more than you should? Do you want to design cool monsters? Do you want to read the ramblings of a mad-man? This is the game for you! "This game is a message" is a one-page lyric game inspired by nuclear waste warnings. In it, you describe the monster that's been haunting you, in order to warn those that will come after. Whether that monster is real, metaphorical, or somewhere in-between is up to you.

ONE PAGE LEFT, is now available! 🔪✨

In this solo horror-inspired game you take the role of a survivor fleeing a slasher… but there's a catch: if you run out of space to write, YOU DIE.

Did I mention it's FREE to download?

Go get it! 😈

For this weekend's dive through the archives, "The Forest Depths" by Urisdice. This is an odd one, as I wasn't involved in that zine project in any way, I just really liked it, and wanted to make a little AP comic of the first section of the game.

Also, "Tritone" may be the best pun name I've ever come up with.

Have you played WRECK THIS DECK ?

By Becky Annison

Wreck This Deck is a dark urban fantasy game of solo journaling, demon summoning and deck crafting. Summon and bind demons into your Demon Deck, defacing the cards as you go.

(Poll Runner Note : God I want to try this game, but I can't bring myself to buy a new deck. Plus I am really bad at art and crafts)

[haridraws]

Things that can happen in this book:

you accidentally do some treason to impress a cool genderqueer spy you may be in love with

you come home to find your family house has been absolutely fucked up by some sort of magic and all your stuff got confiscated by very ominous ‘inquisitors’

you scam rich people into thinking you’re a servant with various gendered disguises. For stealing purposes

you get cursed by a mysterious book that REALLY wants you to find a forbidden Thing and destroy the world, which now seems like a great idea

These are just in the intros of the 4 characters you pick from at the beginning. Once you're inside there are a LOT of different choices, including eg. allowing you to be murdered by your clone, get trapped forever in the source of all magic or befriend a powerful woodlouse.

(Into the tower, out now)

Wednesday night drop. Solo PbtA game inspired by L O S T and other Robinsonades. Pay what you want.

[wehavekookies]

Playing Max Moon's Twelve Years solo rpg, and turns out I'm enjoying drawing these little map tiles far more than i expected, lol. Turning a story about killing a Lich King into a meditative practice I guess.
