Free League is the new standard. The King has died. Great review.

Gorgeous game. Free League makes some amazing games. No 1 RPG company by a long way.

Thanks for reviewing the Dragonbane solo rules, interesting and informative as always. I'm kind of late to the party for Dragonbane as I didn't know about until Free RPG day when I got the QSR. I ran it for my family and we had so much fun! Then I learned that there are solo rules as well, I was sold and got the boxed set. Your review confirmed my decision.

I really enjoyed this episode, Geek Gamers. It is really fascinating how you tailor a product to fit your solo role-playing needs. Thank you.

We've been waiting for this too. Your view on this game has been high on my list of must watch youtube for a while now.

Just a note that the solo player's ability Sole Survivor lets you push a roll without gaining a condition but it does cost 3 WP each time - love your channel by the way!

The best solo rules by Free League out of all their attempts (T2K, One Ring, Forbidden Lands are quite half baked) Free League is slowly getting there regarding making their game Solo friendly out of the box. I also find the Adventure sites quite solo frienly with some simple procedure. The color coded name for traps / surprise means player can just skip reading them and only trigger / read them when they failed a roll etc.

Great video! I just recently picked up the quick-start guide and didn't realize there were solo rules that came in the starter set. I think I might have to end up getting the full version of this sometime soon

The solo rules for this game are very good. Plus the rollable tables are so detailed in what happens, leaving little room for interpretation, that the game feels like a railroad.

Great video. Such a great and fun game. I started my own solo story as soon as I received the box.

That looks great! Thanks for the video.

Awesome!

I just started my first Dragonbane solo campaign this week and I'm having so much fun! I was really surprised at how fast Free League was able to ship it to me. Great review!

Thanks for the review! I just pre-ordered. Looks like it will be a neat game. I like that it addresses the solo aspect.

I have the PDF of this game, but I think I’m going to have to go for the physical. I love these tables they could be used for so many other games as well, especially that enemy attack table!!! Also, there is a great physical deck from dungeons and dragons that has all kinds of treasures that have physical effects on the game. These could be modified based on whatever fantasy RPG you’re playing, highly recommend it.

Just got the quick start guide! Looking forward to reading it! I really like what is available with the solo rules in the box set. I have been struggling to find role tables like those. I made my own, but haven't used then yet.

I already have more games than I can play, but I've been so tempted to get this for the at alone.

Thanks for reviewing this! I'm looking forward to playing it solo. To somewhat address the lack of flavor and mechanical impact of the treasure items, e.g. the rings at the 20:47 mark, I'm thinking it could be neat to use a 3rd party resource to fill in the blanks. For the rings, something like Madeline Hale's Arcane Artifacts & Curious Curios' jewelry section could help add some flavor. The actual mechanical effect would still need to be figured out, though. Would love to hear anyone's thoughts about how they might solve that without it potentially breaking the game by being overpowered. Maybe just referencing the Dragonbane Rulebook's Gear section and using a listed effect for a similar item could work. Thanks for all of your videos and your wonderful Solo Game Masters Guide! They have really inspired me and helped.

That heroic ability where you get a reroll without a condition costs 3 willpower to use, so you would definitely wait to see if you failed before using it.

Very well done. I was given this box set for my birthday. I love solo play so I watched your video for clarification and got it! I can see what you mean about the treasure cards not having an in game purpose. I was thinking that maybe for solo play It should be left open to be filled in by the random table results.

Have become my favorite ttrpg! Its RIPE for homebrewing. Im alredy gonna make 9 sub types/ colors/ metals/ gems even of the standard dragon. New breath attacks etc. Have the D&D dragons be put to shame... a bit 😂 And also official stuff like packs of physical colored/ uncolored standees, pre painted+unpainted minis, more colored dices, physical map packs with 5x5 feet/ 2x2 m squares etc Sure DnD have the wealth of structure for classes/ races/ species/ spells/ draconic races and familiar worlds, Pathfinder have the wealth of options and more combat options. Dragonbane got an actual deep combat, very homely, mysterious yet brutal and darkly humourous folk tale style in which I as ethnic norwegian love. So thanks Frie Ligan / Free League, the D.B creators and the illustrators and artists like Johann Egerkrans.🤘👏🍺🍗🍊🍆🥦

I was about to get the game but then I saw Donald Duck.... Great video anyway... as usual!!!

Another money-grab product. All these "solo" releases are nothing more than rehashed stuff for dollar bills. All is needed for solo play is one solid rulebook, some oracles/descriptive words/symbols to inspire the imagination. Creativity and one's own mind is key to solo RPG.
