Hello and Welcome Back to the Solo RolePlayers Podcast.

Today on the show I got a hot little game to the table, known to some as Kal-Arath. This affordable, old school, small foot-printed little gem is great for short (or long) sessions on the go or at home.

Hope you enjoy the actual play of Kal-Arath.

Check out the Castle Grief Substack for more info.

Hello and Welcome Back to The Solo RolePlayers Podcast and today on the show I am proud to bring you one of the founders of arguably, the most solo friendly of the standard rpg publishers, Free League. 

Tomas and I caught up recently to talk about how Free League came about and why supporting solo play is important to them.

Enjoy!

Hello and Welcome back to The Solo RolePlayers Podcast. Today on the show I am keen as mustard to bring out another new format for a spin. 

That first look, first touch, first flick of a new RPG is a magical experience. You (or at least I) skin things, stop at cool art, let out a 'wicked' under your breath for some fangled new dice mechanic, and let the beginnings of your first potential story in this game start to bubble up in your imagination. 

Not quite review, (definitely) not quite tutorial, my goal with this format is to give you a bit of a feel for what this game might be like to play and how I think about new systems and settings when i'm getting ready to play in them for the first time. 

Enjoy!

Hello and Welcome Back to The SoloRolePlayers Podcast. Today on the show, in preparation for the official, one and only, never to be repeated first episode of season 2 of the show (nearly finished but not quite) I bring to you today an ancient recording found collecting dust, presumably in some moldering tomb or another, a play I did way back in the early years of the lovely little game Cartograph. 

This is not your heart-wrenching, stomach-churning, drama heavy playthrough, but rather a very cozy walk through this book.

Part play, part tutorial, part unboxing.....now that I edit it I realise it is foreshadowing of things to come..... all map drawing, so with that mysterious inkling out of the way, in anticipation for the new season, sit back, relax and enjoy an early years episode from that guy who plays games solo for some reason...PJ

Hello and Welcome to the very first annual SoloRolePlayers Birthday Celebration!

Join me as I riff and reminisce on a whole year behind the play and the pod.

Regular scheduled programming will be back for season 2 of the show very soon.

A quick check in as to why there is no episode today.

Hello and Welcome Back to The Solo RolePlayers Podcast. Today on the show I am thrilled to bring you an interview I had with the quirkiest game designer I have ever met......the games are quirky I mean and in the moist wonderfully creative and interesting ways.

Join me and Cezar Capacle as he dives right in to his fascinating style of game design as well as going into detail on his two new big projects.

Enjoy!

Hello Dear SoloRolePlayers, 

Today on the show I got back on the mic with the inimitable Tana Pigeon to continue our play of Pirate Borg that we started in the 'Playing Published Adventures' episode a while back. 

In other news: Our Birthday is coming up in a little over a month, hooray! And I would love to hear from listeners and lovers of SoloRolePlay, either just saying happy birthday, reminiscing on a memorable moment from the show or from your own solo adventures this year. 

If you would like to leave us a message for the Birthday Show then you can head over to https://www.speakpipe.com/SoloRolePlayers and drop us a line. 

Enjoy, 

- PJ
