It’s been a while now since I’ve been playing solo Mörk Borg and I’m finally getting the hang of it. I’m keeping a small diary where I write what happens in the game and I’m decorating it with some illustrations of the items and creatures I encounter.

Solo roleplay feels so much more freeing and fun to get into, I’d recommend you to try it if you want a more relaxing way of experiencing the genre!

Got another solo RPG demo in the can on YouTube. This time fulfilling a promise to play out a Bookmark HP RPG battle between a player's character and a "Major Foe"—i.e. a foe with a full set of four attributes.

Part of the long delay between Julia Bailey videos has been difficulty coming up with an episodic Western campaign. Fan

Video Playthrough of IWtStWbIJaL1S
My YouTube channel has been sadly neglected, to say the least. But I now have a better setup and an easier editing process, married to an ongoing love of solo play. So here's hoping for more regular videos in the future.

For a sort of review of the game, visit my earlier post about it from May. Thanks!

Second, it's a surprisingly good way to develop or strengthen your own GM skills, by discovering simu

Whether you live in the boonies (like me), just can't wait until Friday night ('80s factory worker me), or can't get your friends to play anything but [insert their favorite game system here], GM-less role-play is a godsend.

For my money, the best options for GM-less are:
