    S&W Whitebox, S&W Complete, Labyrinth Lord ,and Basic Fantasy are the easiest systems I've found to solo with. I'm really interested in Open Legend now! Thanks for pointing that out!

      I have been playing TFT solo since the re-release. By far my go to game for solo.
      Second most used system, bfrpg.

    The 5th edition DMG has charts, the same as the first edition. Even not solo, the charts come in handy.

    Basic fantasy is perfect and natural to me for solo.

    I never heard about the Open Legends before.
    Thank you for the suggestion, it is amazing!
    I was searching for a game that uses d20 (and don't necessary be a D&D alike...).
    I almost have a Forbiden Lands pdf copy that I grant in a promo, and I never look foward in the to see the tables in it! It is great!

    Fantasy trip is designed to play solo or with friends. The death test that comes with the legacy game works great either way.

      Fantasy Trip is designed to be played with friends. Can be soloed with emulator, of course.

    I play The Fantasy Trip with my girlfriend. We like the old metagame programmed adventures also for Melee & wizard for a more simple combat experience. We really like how combat plays in this game and couldn´t find something similar yet that allows us to play combat encounters with chits or standees and tactical options. We tried D100 Dungeon, 4AD, 2hour dungeon crawl, etc... we could never find the feel of TFT. We are not that into RPGs in their more abstract aspects, maybe we are more into the boardgame side of it. the thing is we also move around in a van and boxes full of plastic are not an option. Is there Any system that allows for tactical combat like TFT (grid, hex, wtv) that anyone could recomend? Sadly TFT is too deadly for a crawl and there are no hexcrawls with encoutners and stuff for it nowadays, instead the publishers seem to go for bizarre stuff like vampire hunting maids.

    #1 and #4 needs to be 1a and 1b and decided together, it seems to make more sense to me. #4 seems to be more of a style of game or game type.

    I respectfully disagree, GURPS is as easy to adapt for solo play as any system. It's all in what you are looking for. GURPS can be very complex, but it doesn't need to be. I'd argue it is the most adaptable of all the major game sets. However, if you are new to solo play, you may find it easier to stick with a system like Ironsworn, until you are comfortable with using oracles etc.

      Cool thanks for the answer. I’m new to all tabletop rpgs I mostly play board games and the dnd adventure systems. But I have been looking into tunnels and trolls to make wacky adventures like adapting adventure time cartoon to tabletop. I downloaded a dnd4th Ed fan made supplement for adventure time to adapt to tunnels and trolls. Mostly due to rules lightness. But ironsworn looks amazing. Got the free rules. I will keep watching your vids for more learning thanks.

      I usually dont do cyberpunk/sci fi...but if I did I could use the free Open Legend Rules......if I was to buy a new RPG I would be looking at Coriolis, since it uses the same system as forbidden lands. Tat is just me though.
