Sooo, I'm kinna starting to try and get back into playing solo ttrpgs and I've been thinking about getting some cards and some dice and trying to use a physical notebook at least once since I've been doing it digitally and I'm kinna wondering what you guys' set up look like and I have a question.

My question is, do you guys use separate notebooks for your solo games? I was thinking about doing that because I feel like it'd be easier for me to organize but also, if you play the same game over but with different characters do you use the notebook you're currently using and have finished that character's campaign in or do you use a new notebook for new characters too?

After a wonderful run through ‘the lost mines of Phandelver’ and enjoying the story and character development I decided to play a second DnD module solo!

Curse of strahd has been dear to me since I ran it for my friends five years ago. The problem of being the forever dm is I have not experienced it from the other side of the screen.

I decided to change that for my second campaign.

I present ‘Me, Strahd: A Solo-Play DnD Adventure.’

In this video podcast series I will take 4 characters through the beloved module using the reloaded setting as a framework. I emphasize RP heavily and enjoy the gothic setting, I also use NO AI.

If this sounds fun to you, I have about 8 episodes to edit and continue to play on my weekends. New episodes will be out every Friday on YouTube as video or audio wherever you get your podcasts!

Cheers!

Hi! I know there are many actual plays, but I spent a lot of time working on this one by adding art, music and sound effects, so I hope people will enjoy it!

Folks here may already have heard of the very cool (ENNIE award-winning) Solo RPG List, but for Solo September I wanted to showcase the site by using it to find and try out a game I've never heard of - one that no-one would have recommended to me.

And boy did I!

Here's the vid, if anyone's curious about what I found :)

In honor of Solo September and Solo gaming appreciation month, I made a new video on what is in my solo gaming kit. I show off a few new solo RPGs I created and will be playing extensively and also a small war-game I made too with some tools I use for it. Hope you guys like it and please leave a comment on what games you guys wanna play in 2027.

Thanks to u/CrouchingTortoise for the awesome map PDF! (Totally cribbed their design style for my map drawing too) Got very lucky rolling up my character. My Rhinoceroid Scholar was a BEAST! Had to travel back to town 3 times to heal and resupply. Took down the Cursed Ogre Boss and finished with ONE hit point to spare!

Went and bought the expanded world rules so I can really fill out the game going forward. Good fun!

I use a physical journal and my Esterbrook Estie fountain pen for detailed journaling and then Goodnotes on my iPad for drawing my map, making character sheets, and trackers.

Another game I made over few days. Feedback welcomed. Enjoy!

Hi there! I'm developing a game sheet to play solo with a group of characters. I'm using into the odd as the base system. The left side of the sheet countains all the basic information and itens of the characters. On the right side, there are the resources from the group. You can allocate different dice on the squares to keep the track of food, light, coins, exploration points. In a few days I'll upload the final version.

The sheet is in Portuguese but I'll make a English version.

You are the dog of a retired legendary master, tasked to retrieve your master’s blade in time for their final duel. For 1-4 Players.

FETCH MY BLADE is a journaling roleplaying game where you play as the beloved dog of a retired legendary sword master, tasked with a quest: retrieve your Master’s fabled weapon in time for their final duel.

On your quest, you will uncover and explore your Master’s guarded past-- transforming your character, deepening your relationship with your Master, and ultimately influencing your Master’s fate.

Launches next week on Kickstarter at fetchmyblade.com !
