What are the different types of SoloRPGs?

- In this video I do my best to break down the different types of SoloRPGs by providing an explanation and examples of each. A lot of people see one solo game and think all of them are the same, so this is my effort to dispel that.
This video was definitely inspired by one of the earliest videos I watched on Solo gaming by Daniel of @TheDungeonDive which was really fundamental in my understanding of the space. I really appreciate his channel for that reason, and recommend you check out that video as well (link below).
I finally lay out my terms and conditions to @desertdwellersologaming as to my terms and conditions of the Mörk Börg solo playthrough...
Finally you have until MAY 12 to put in your submission for the "I CAN SOLO ANYTHING" giveaway contest with prizes generously provided by @towerhousecreative4663 (links below) including a Fate Mill dice AND a brand spankin' new Starter Kit for one of this channel's absolute favorite game Dragonbane from @FreeLeaguePublishing . (US participants only for those prizes, some digital prizes will be offered for first and second place for International Customers)
Don't miss out, make sure you submit your idea now for this contest at: forms.gle/4NgCGJ3N4dh1pcnA6
Note on Links:
It's getting a little tough to list out all of my links on each and every video, so I'm looking into creating a blog or website where I can list all of these out.
Some links, but not all:
Across a Thousand Dead Worlds and Broken Shores by @blackoathentertainment5617 can both be found at www.blackoathgames.com
Use Promo Code MANALONE20 for 20% of all products on www.TowerHouseCreative.com including the amazing Fate Mill and (my new best dice buddies) the Dyadic d20 dice PLUS the Bell Weathers system agnostic tool I show toward the end of the video.

The Dragonbane supplement does not actually contain degrees for any Universities in Spain nor does it have your 2025 taxes. If you thought that was true you should stay where you are and call emergency services for assistance, because you are dangerously out of touch with reality. - Ігри
Video 4 of me liking and then commenting on every new upload to beg Papa Man Alone for Mork Borg Gameplay and/or Campaign.
I think you should watch the video...especially at 40:02!

FOLLOW UP EDIT:
Just finished the video (I leave my like and comment and then watch because it’s happening no matter what.) I actually laughed out loud when the 3 landed. The game wants to be played, it now calls out to you, just as I do. An easy barrier to entry, an impossible hell to escape.
That makes this video “4 (1 of 3)”, which will be my new format for the count when I comment because I’m nerdy and like that stuff.
Also, how about this, after I hit the quota, which I will, you make a check on 2D20(additive) and that’s the NEXT countdown. If you don’t feel like that’s enough, maybe a D66? Or maybe you don’t want to do any more Mork Borg, and that’s okay. I’ll be happy with what I got.
I love your channel man. On my free time I’ve been going back to watch old videos and catch up on all the stuff you’ve put out! Fantastic creator. Beautiful mind!
When you started taking about fish my brain just went to Gollum
For the procedurally generated games, in the end you’re playing the algorithm. You have to enjoy the moment-to-moment play and be surprised and get highs when the algorithm presents you something outside the bell curve. These can be fun, when done right.
One thing that took a minute to click for me was the idea of buying a rules set or a full game with the intent of using the resources with a different rules set. I use the source material for Forbidden Lands quite a bit. I actually grabbed that as well as the Zweihänder really just to mine inspiration and tables. Speaking of, both Knave and Cairn are also outstanding for their tables. Into the Odd is just cool in every way possible. Electric Bastionland looks amazing, but I just can't with the shipping cost right now.
Totally submitted! I live in Sweden, but my sister has a US mailing address and she is visiting 🇸🇪 this summer. Let’s go!!! 🤞🤪🔥
May the favors, be ever in you odds!!!!

I love these late night video posts! Well, late for me.
Can only make videos when I have nothing else to do in the day
Super intrigued by thousand empty light and also those mapmaking games. I've been playing thousand dead worlds and loving learning about all these vastly different games. Ironsworn is great but its nice to know theres a lot of other kinds of experiences to be had in this space
so much for everyone to enjoy! mapmaking games are a unique experience all their own but I find them to be the most relaxing for me. I can think of a whole ship/colony/city rather than looking through the pov of one person which is a more intimate type of stress
you can also solo lots of rpgs games with an oracle like mythic
I have subscribed simply because of your candid natures about what I will be getting. Love your videos its like sitting an having coffee with a friend more than attending a class with a professor.
I actually borrowed the book and started playing a bit of Starforged after being inspired by you to try something made specifically for solo roleplaying.
I guess the way I feel about it right now is the same way I feel about journaling games. I need crunch. I like doing the math. Right now it feels like I'm playing chess with no rules and I can just sweep the board with the queen. But maybe it'll grow on me, I'll give it a few more sessions. I want to get better at roleplaying, so maybe removing the crunch element will help grow those muscles faster.
It'll tide over my sci-fi cravings until Starfinder 2e comes out at least. God knows I'll never get brave enough to fall into the solo shadowrun rabbit hole.
Excellent list of books.
Some of them I didn't know about and will need to check out soon!
DARK FORT MENTIONED 🗣️📣📣 Still having fun with it even when Kargunt gets turned into a maggot or meets a dead end
This channel has been great for me!
Wispers of the dead saint huh well damn ..my epilog
well that title is already taken so you will have to be whispers of the dead saint part TWO
Submitted to the contest, thanks for the video! On another note, any update on your upcoming video about why you play solo? Excited to hear some Jungian takes on this hobby :D
Thanks!
When there is a solo RPG culture War it's just a bunch of people talking to themselves.
Great video! Have you looked at all at solo games that emulate a party, letting you play the role of GM, instead of emulating the GM while you play a PC? I recently found the solo rules pdf for Cloud Empress and found them intriguing. It randomly generates a set of persoanlity traits for each character in the party, and then in any given situation you can roll to see which personality trait comes to the forefront.
I like Dave from Dungeon Dive but I prefer your chanel because you actually play games and not only review them.
I like RPGs because of the narration of a story so so it is good learning a game while hearing a gameplay.
(I don't care if it is live play or recorded with editing).
And also, it is interesting to see how other people are (solo) playing RPGs.
If you HAD to solo The Burning Wheel which of these methods would you use...
Open garbage can, throw burning wheel inside, scream out "SOLO'D BIATCH!!!"
@amanisalone lmao say it isn't so
Would like to hear your thoughts on "Solo" vs "Cooperative" games. I love playing cooperative games solo.
ALSO WHERE DID YOU GET THE PRINT OF SOLITARY DEFILEMENT? I CAN’T FIND IT AND IM PROBABLY GOING TO CRY.
It's a secret...but if you promise to not tell anyone...select the "zine" option from dropdown menu www.maxmoongames.com/product/solitarydefilement/48?cp=true&sa=false&sbp=false&q=false&category_id=5
Blessings to you. Target locked and acquired.
Where to get solitary defilement? The pages I found selling physical copies are out of stock😢
Shhh...only a few left from Max Moon games...select the "zine" option from dropdown menu: www.maxmoongames.com/product/solitarydefilement/48?cp=true&sa=false&sbp=false&q=false&category_id=5
@@amanisalonethanks!
38:33 Oh man....please, please don't talk about coffee shops that closed in six months....
It hurts....😣😢😧
Where would you place Scarlet Heroes? I kind of think it'd be part of another category called...um...'bolt-ons', in that they're a standalone rpg system, but with a useful solo system included.
Also, regarding your dust bowl idea, you may want to read 'The Circus of Dr. Lao' by Charles G. FInney. DO NOT watch the movie with Tony Randall-it's just...it's just safer that way. The book is fascinating, working with the idea that even the supernatural might be affected by economic devastation. And it's, for lack of a better term, a hoot.

When does Dust Borg go to kickstarter?
It just did. Just by saying the title you have kickstarted it
@amanisalone I saw that there was mork borg action figures on kickstarter. Rumor has it, for $60 u can get a pdf of the figure.
unsponsored ads 🤣
Are we “allowed” to say some people prefer some things over others these days? 🙄
absolutely not. You will receive a list of your preferences each morning. read that list and comply.
I mean, if you don't talk on social media(no major app understands nuance), or in places where someone else can be sued for your choices, you can say all sorts of things without people yelling at or dog piling you.(Though I personally don't recommend being judgemental or insulting, because most people hate that.)
