More and more often, I see people asking for solo rules for big RPG projects, which I understand as solo play is really popular, especially post-pandemic, but can sometimes be a mammoth task to add in (and happened with YMIAT,YDIAD)

Hey #ttrpgCommunity!

We've been getting a lot of questions about solo mode in #ttrpgs, so it's clearly part of the zeitgeist. Can you point us at some good solo RPGs? What's the core feature that makes them solo? What would you want from a solo game?

New Solo Session play report is out covering Space Aces: Voyages in Infinite Space.
It’s a whimisical #TTRPG casting you as a sci-fi gig worker. Star Trek Lower Decks and Hitchhicker’s Guide vibes. Not built specifically for solo play, but works very well. No GM emulator needed.
