I do like dnd but ive just had some form of burnout lately and i feel like my depression isint helping either.

I want to explore other games and genres besides just dnd 5e. I would like to try solo but im not sure what the most beginner approach/game would be that is free, as i dont want to pay right away. I would also like to explore unique card games similar to tcgs but those dont really come solo.

Im up to hear out your suggestions and questions.

    Since it’s a list of other great recommendations, I want to highlight for you:

    If you’re willing to spend $10, itch.io has an amazing bundle on right now with a bunch of solo games:

    https://itch.io/b/3484/no-ice-in-minnesota

    By a “bunch”, there’s a total of over 1400 games. Some are PC games and some are print and play one shot RPGs or board games or party games. Many have solo rules.

    If this deal wasn’t going on right now, in your shoes, I would still go shop itch.io because it’s where I find great independent solo game and solo RPG authors, and many are like $2.

    Seriously great bundle for a pen and paper gamer. I’ve never seen one like it.

    It’s a worthwhile charity too, in my opinion. I live too close to Minnesota, so I have some motivation to see the masked thugs without badges or body cameras stopped before they spread any further.

      Thanks for clarifying that. Yeah it’s massive. There are so many solo games in it too.

      There are a lot of $20-30 games in there that I’ve had my eye on for while. Rebel Scum, This Mortal Coil, Eco-Mofos. Just really good stuff.

      And it’s a great cause. I’m nowhere Minnesota but anything we can do to stop these bastards, even if it’s buying and playing games, is a good start.
