Author – Charlie Ferguson-Avery (@CharlieFergaves) Where to Buy – https://feral-indie-studios.itch.io/vast-in-the-dark I’m a sucker for a good liminal space, and even more so for TTRPG products that deal with them. The Stygian Library and The Gardens of Ynn are two of my all-time favorites (shout out to Dying Stylishly Games), and now I have a third […]
Author – Mr. Ray (@Mr_Ray_rpg) Art – Meghan Murphy Where to Buy – https://mr-ray.itch.io/3-baddies-and-a-baby Before setting down to write this review I had to ask myself, “Is it logical to write a 500-word review on a one-page RPG?” After all, the game in question is only 567 words so, in reality, you could read the […]
Author – Kalum from the Rolistes Podcast (@rolistespod) Where to Buy – https://rolistespod.itch.io/paris-gondo-text-only I’m not gonna lie. When I first read the title Paris Gondo: The Life-Saving Magic of Inventorying, I had no inkling it was a pun or play on words because, well, I’m an American and we pronounce the S in Paris. Also, […]
Author – Starshine Scribbles (@Starshinescrib) Where to Buy – https://starshinescribbles.itch.io/megamart This Game Takes Place Entirely In A Mega Mart Parking Lot!, as the illustrative name suggests, is designed to let players weave tales in that most fantastic, liminal space that is the mega mart parking lot. Once the game begins, players can neither leave the […]
Author – Kai Poh (@tunkaipoh) Graphic Design/Layout – Elisha Rusli Where to Buy – https://roleoverplaydead.itch.io/ech0 There’s something special about an RPG that sets out to tell a very specific type of story and achieves that design goal in only a handful of pages. In many games I’ve read (but not reviewed on the blog), authors […]
Author – Matt Keck, Tony Marin, & others Where to Buy – https://www.feastoflegends.com/ Ah, 2019. Remember 2019? Back when all our times were still precedented, an egg cream only cost a nickel, and you could stand in a crowded elevator with a bunch of strangers and not even think about the legion of germs being […]
Author – Adam Baffoni (@CritSuccess_) Where to Buy – https://adambaffoni.itch.io/journey-home As long as we’ve had a fantasy genre, we’ve had stories involving portal fantasy. For those unfamiliar with the term…oh who am I kidding. You’re reading a solo TTRPG review blog. You know what portal fantasy is. But on the outside chance you don’t (or […]
Author – Daniel Rodriguez (@Fandible) Where to Buy – https://fandible.itch.io/cats-corpses Cats will eat you after you die, and they won’t even wait that long to dig in. That’s the sunny premise of Daniel Rodriguez’s solo journaling game Cats & Corpses. I mean, it’s more that just that. A good bit more, actually. But it’s important […]
Author – Sandy Pug Games (@SandyPugGames) Where to Buy – https://tinyurl.com/nelrn5j6 “You Are Quarantined with Adam Driver and He is Insisting on Reading You His New Script” (YAQWADAHIIORYHNS for…short?) is an incredibly stupid game. I highly recommend it. In YAQWADAHIIORYHNS, you play, well, yourself, and circumstances are such that well-known actor Adam Driver is now […]
Author – Rob Hebert (@nerdypapergames) Where to Buy – https://nerdypapergames.itch.io/escape Escape from Demon Castle Dracula (EFDCD) is just analog Castlevania, and I mean that in the best possible way. In it, you play an amnesiac searching through the titular castle as you deal with its denizens, traps, and the slow return of your memory. The […]
