- Sometimes you just want to explore a fantasy world alone.
Luckily that is more possible than ever! Solo RPGs have had more and more recognition recently, and that trend is not going away anytime soon!

Thanks for mentioning my lil' game.
No worries! Thank you for making it. The Book of Quests was also a really nice addition for it! If I may ask do you have intentions to expand EZD6 even further?
ps. Thank you for the sub!
@@CRP-WaltteriScotty is working on EZD6 Wasted World, which is a post-apocalyptic game. From what I have heard, it shouldn't be too long before it comes out.
This video was mint! A lot of useful info in a compact and inspiring package! Thanks again! 😎
Great video! Haven't heard of some these!
I'd totally love to see a series about Heroes of the White Tower! I've just started looking into solo ttrpg games and it definitely sounds like the style of game I'm leaning towards. Really glad to have found your channel! Keep up the great work!
Thank you for your kind words!
Would definitely be interested in seeing a playthrough of Heroes of the White Tower!
Also, only knew a few of the games on the list, will have to check the rest out
An excellent video. Thank you for this. There are some excellent games to look at there.
Wow! Really looking into playing your game. 😍😍
Great list! Jist discovered your channel - gonna be going back and watching some stuff!
Thanks a lot! I have actually watched some of your stuff too! keep up the good work!
A solid list. I'm familiar with all of the games you listed except Fighting Fantasy. I will check out your game. It looks interesting.
Thanks for the list. I solo a lot. You made me want to revisit AFF solo. Delve seems right up my alley. I'll look it up.
No problem! I added Delve into the links down below as well if you don't feel like googling, but it can be found both drive-thru and itch.io
I really love Cairn. Just finished my first solo-adventure with it. It has simple settings and rules, a awesome community on discord and lots os supplements (also for solo-play) :). Right now the 2nd edition is on its way and looks awesome. Definitley worth a try.
I have been meaning to check Cairn 2nd. And also Knave 2nd. Edition out !
This is my first visit to this channel, i have subbed. It was a good list, your game looks great i will pick it up.
Thank you! I hope I'll see you in my future videos!
Your game looks fascinating, I purchased it and am looking forward to giving it a read!
Thank you so much!
Kudos on the game! I like the perk system you have, and it’s got a cool flavor for the setting and races. It’ll be neat to see how it develops.
Thank you! I have in the works a "Classic Fantasy convertion guide"
Where there would be OG kin, maybe add Bard and Paladin Roles and have some base tips how to convert OSR mob into HotWH monster.
But haven't really got into it because I still have my hands full with the core game haha.
Nice selection, I have several. I would mention that D100 Dungeon and 4Against the Dark are MADE for solo and are pure awesome. I would add to your list Forbidden Lands. Low on price and volume of books. Excellent quality of books. Setting and design are suited to solo.
D100 dungeon and 4AD are indeed made for solo but I would not classify them TTRPGs. But I could actually make a list of solo RPGs that could be played and are as good as TTRPGs. For example I love 5 Leagues from the Borderlands which is a miniature adventure skirmish game.
Forbidden Lands is definitely a good one! And it also now has the solo rules so really fun to play a hex adventure!
Very good recommendations overall here!
I use The White Box RPG with Table Fables 1 & 2 for solo play, works well.
Whitebox is really solid!
Mausritter with Delve was the combo I never knew I needed till now. Please make that video!!
No quarantees but it is definitely on the list! I really want overall to give Mausritter more love on the channel! I love that game.
Thanks for the video
I'm glad you found it helpful!
Great list! I would also recommend a FKR game called Kismet. It’s very rules light - only one stat and that’s it. It’s great for RP anf for those who don’t like the rules in their way
Cool! Sounds like katanas & kimonos or lasers & feelings! I will have to check that one out.
@@CRP-Waltteri the funny thing is that Lasers&Feelins is more chrouchy than Kismet. In Kismet you don’t have HP or stats. You just have some descriptive things that helps you with RP like how do you act or which weapon you use or even if you have an item based on your character. All is decided with a d20 roll. The next action to succeed must be higher than your previous roll and that’s all the mechanic. It’s a really great system to play written adventures because all rolls are player facing and there are no monster stat blocks. It’s really fun. There is also an expansion that suggests how you can add chrunch to the game like stats, HP and other stuff.
Great list. I've been wanting to get into TTRPG's for awhile now, but I simply don't have the people to play them and I'm just not comfortable playing with strangers online (it is the internet after all), so I've been hunting around for solo play instead. If you have anymore recommendations, I would love to hear them. Keep up the good work.
If you want to get started with roleplaying games I suggest looking into Dragonbane!
I have a video of it in my channel and there is also a lot of play material about it in other channels as well.
I would start with that, I tried to make the video as beginner friendly as possible!
congrats, love your stuff
Thank you so much!
Such a fan of LUCK as a catch-all save!
It is really handy if implemented well!
Definity an interesting list, I've only heard of Mausritter and EZD6 mentioned but never really looked into them; looks like I should!
A Heroes of the White Tower series would be fun to watch, plus it is always helpful when the creator of a game has a lot of guided game play that we can use as a reference! It would be awesome to see both you playing the game as well as a "How HotWT Plays?" video in my opinion.
Yeah! And it would be fun to play the game and ask feedback from you, my audience as well about the system and what in your opinion worked and what would you like to see more.
Hello Thank you for your content. I would be interested in seeing how you play one of the mentioned games here solo to get an idea how to approach it. Thank you
You're welcome! Definitely I will be using the systems mentioned here in the future! I am probably going to use my one game in the upcoming mythic tutorial part 3. Stay tuned for the other systems as well!
I've been thinking about using EZD6 for solo play. Everyone will have their own preference, but I like something simple that doesn't require you to memorize a ton of rules.
I think another great game that lends itself well to solo play is Fate, because it is very focused on the narrative and characters, and is quite simple once you understand Aspects (which seems to be a bit confusing for some).
What is good about fate is also the different versions.
If you want skill and little bit more spesivity you can go with FATE core and if you want even lighter and more "vibe" you can go with accelerated.
Cortex Prime is also a really good system if you guys want to play a variety of RPG themes, it's extremely easy to create enemies or challenges on the fly as both are just made up of a bunch of dice.
Yeah. I see Cortex Prime more like a tool box, just like GURPS is but being more leaning to narrative gameplay rather than simulationist.
Cortex Prime is very universal as well. I might do a list of universal TTRPGs at some point.
To be fair I have never succeeded in using cortex prime properly, there is just something that I can't really wrap my head around and I do not know what it is.
I might be wrong but don’t you need Runecairn to play Cairn solo (truly solo, no other PCs in a party)? Great suggestions, I definitely want to check out Pirate Borg!
Runecairn is its own game with its own mechanics. I think runecairn has its own solo support, but you can play Cairn solo just with an oracle you do not necessarily need Runecairn.
But runecairn is also pretty dope in itself so good shoutout!
Thank you for shouting out DELVE 😊
Certainly! It's great. I have had much fun with it! 😊
I'd be curious to see your thoughts and take on Blades in the Dark
I'll see what I can do about this! I haven't played Blades in the Dark, but I have played Band of Blades and Scum and Villainy which both use forged on the dark system so the system itself is familiar to me.
@@CRP-Waltteri I'm learning scum and villainy. I find that setting much easier to really get into the game mechanics. With Blades, I was distracted by the setting to the point of not fully learning how to apply the rules.
Advanced Fighting Fantasy seems interesting. I was thinking of trying something like Tunnels and Trolls. Don't know if they are similar.
Kinda yes and no:D.
I have a minimal touch on Tunnels and Trolls but I know their combat is kinda similar:
In both games both combatants roll their attacks at the same time, and the winner deals damage to the loser, I know that in tunnels and trolls the damage is the difference of the roll, while in Fighting Fantasy you still roll damage roll and armor roll to determine the damage.
Don't know for T&T but at least In FF there are kinda like different moves that you can also do during the combat. So it's surprisingly deep even tho it's just a roll of and the winner hits the loser.
@@CRP-Waltteri Thanks for the comments. I am just getting interested in solo RPG play. I am still figuring out what is out there.
