Hello and Welcome Back to the Solo RolePlayers Podcast. 

Today on the show we are trying something a little different as I present to you this fantastic bug sized role playing game. This game is our months highlight for the topic: free/affordable games. 

If you want to hear the full extended 90 min [ACTUAL PLAY] and the full hour long [INTERVIEW] with Jim Hall, you can join up as a FREE member over on the SoloRolePlayers Patreon and listen over there.

You can check out Beetle Knight over at Brooklet Games for one of the beautiful hand made copies (which I highly recommend) or head over to Itch.io for the PWYW digital/printable version.

The format of this episode was a bit of a spontaneous experiment. Its not something I'm going to do all the time but I had a lot of fun putting it together but I'm too close to it to tell how well it holds together. If you wouldn't mind, take a moment to send me a quick email to [email protected] to let me know what you think.

Hope you enjoy!
