Mythic Magazine #58 is out loose in the wild! It tackles creating conversation for NPCs in solo games, and features a scenario all about chatter where your PC runs a weird, late-night radio talk show. I love anything "weird" :)

The Lazy Dungeonmaster just did a great segment on Mythic :) I like how he broke it down into the solo intro guide, the one-pager, and the full book. Those are entry points for all levels of players! Nicely done.

I sometimes see players who haven't tried solo roleplay wonder, "How could this work?" It's a tough question to answer, because that "Aha!" moment arrives through trying it. Still, I attempt to answer the question in an article I've posted: https://www.wordmillgames.com/aguidefornewsoloroleplayers.html

A new Mythic Magazine is up at DriveThru, and it's back to another solo dungeon crawl. Except, in a castle. Castle crawl? This one gets weird, involving having no memory of how you got there or who you are. I like weird :)

I started a new solo adventure in a contemporary action setting (kind of like the show Reacher). I realized I almost never play a game that doesn't include powers, magic, supernatural, or something fantastical, so it's kind of refreshing!
