Thanks for clarifying that. Yeah it’s massive. There are so many solo games in it too.
There are a lot of $20-30 games in there that I’ve had my eye on for while. Rebel Scum, This Mortal Coil, Eco-Mofos. Just really good stuff.
And it’s a great cause. I’m nowhere Minnesota but anything we can do to stop these bastards, even if it’s buying and playing games, is a good start.
Vantage is a great solo card game but it’s a bit expensive at $90. I really like it. Great game play loop and a fun way to use your cards while exploring. There’s also one deck dungeon for a lot cheaper. It’s not my favorite, but I play it in hotel rooms a lot because I can pack it easily.
This is a low barrier to entry solo game that is 1) free, and 2) it’ll let you know if you like this style of gaming.

For solo RPGs, I have gotten a lot out of using the Mythic Game Master Emulator with all sorts of games. I’m working on Coriolus right now, but I have had a lot of fun with simpler fantasy games like Knave and Maze Rats.
Starforged is great, but i got that on sale.
This is great for solo gaming:

If you’re willing to spend $10, itch.io has an amazing bundle on right now with a bunch of solo games:
I also switched to Tidal after learning about Spotify’s dystopian future war AI powered killer robot plans. It’s also bullshit how little they pay artists.
I wish Tidal had podcasts, but I’m happy enough with AntennaPod.
Neither did I. I looked it up. I thought it was fake. Horrifyingly, it is not.
