A place for discussion of solo role playing games. Post your play reports, questions or your new discoveries!
The books are fun.
Is this a standard approach to solo role playing?
It is one approach, and goes back to a long time ago with choose your own adventure books.
There are other, less on rails approaches, where you play an RPG and replace what usually would be GM decisions by random tables (concrete and inspirational) and mechanics that introduce complications and challenges.
That's exactly what came to mind.
Ehhhh, yeah, pretty standard.
Solo roleplay is essentially a "choose your own adventure" book, with extra steps
And yeah, I just did a re read of the series back in October. It's a very interesting world.
I wuld call this solo rpg on rails.
And now i see it, it's call an introductory solo adventure. Not a solo rpg. It's how I saw it on Drivethru. I'll be more careful next time.
