Thanks. All my vids have play demos but here I put the demo before the commentary-usually I comment first.

Thanks! It’s a great rule set for soloists!

@@GeekGamers01 I've ordered the starter set which is coming out next week , thanks for the video and like the new format gets you straight into a bit of escapism. If that's the right term.

@@PaulJones-pd7eg Glad to hear you like it--escapism is absolutely the right term. :) {we can all use more of that these days}

Thanks so much. Yes, this will become my new vid approach--it's better! Symbaroum is wonderful solo and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

@@GeekGamers01 Well, I jumped in and ordered the Core Rulebook (with accompany PDF). I’m really loving the ambiguity presented in the setting. Is it really Queen Korinthia or is she an imposter behind that mask? What happened to her while in Captivity. And that’s just a few sentences. There is SO MUCH for players to make their own, which is especially appealing for solo play.

Thanks, on both counts. I think this format is my new format.

Ah thanks so much. I really appreciate that and yes, in that vid as in many others I start with the environment!

Thanks! So much appreciate the feedback and I’m really glad you’re enjoying my content. I hope you enjoy Symbaroum as well!

Thanks and good to know about the format.

Thanks for letting me know! Me too! :)

Wow that is very nice to hear. I must say: I was happy with the way this one turned out. The rules and presentation really resonated with me and it came together nicely on camera.

@@GeekGamers01 You’re very inspiring, I’m even thinking of starting my own KZfaq channel covering solo gaming….

I’m so glad you like my vids and that they are helpful if you’re new to this kind of soloing. I thought the old format better for newbies since I did the overt explaining up front... but folks seem to like this way and I do as well.

Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy Symbaroum as much as I have.

Hexcrawl Adventures is searchable on the Basic Fantasy website in the forums. I try to post links for many things I use but in a lot of cases, what I'm using are things I've had for many years if not decades as might not know where I got them.

Thanks! I’m midway thru filming my next solo vid with this new format and I think it’s really working too.

I have the Game Master's Guide.

Glad to hear that and thanks for the feedback.

Thanks so much! I’m glad you found the vid helpful for your own sessions/work. As to Forbidden Lands: I will be doing somethigg on that soon.

Glad you enjoyed! Free League is wonderful!-not Sweden’s only great export. :)

Totally agree about Symbaroum. I've enjoyed this a bunch. Definitely a solo RPG highlight of 2021 for me.... not sure about another vid or vids, however. I find that no matter what when I do more than 1 vid on a system, nobody watches the 2nd or 3rd vids!

Ironsworn is a great choice to pair with this one. Sounds like you had some fun.

Thank you and yes I have taught at the college level.

Thanks-glad you like my vids. Bekora is my own character creation.

Thanks and glad you enjoyed the vid. I’m not sure what is in the starter set so hard to advise but as you saw with the vid, the core rule book I had contained a players guide as well (and an adventure in the back). For me that was a great place to start. What is in the starter set?

@@GeekGamers01 A boiled down 64 page rulebook, A 64 page adventure book with two adventures, a dice set , and five ready made characters and one ready made Mystic companion, 2 double sided maps . Rule book has guides for creating adventures. Looks really cool , the boiled down starter rules might be easier for a new player to get into before reading the Core book.

@@GeekGamers01 Im thinking the starter set may rely on ready made characters , and I want the creation rules... tough choice!

@@LeTempliers Hmm. Hard to say as I don't know your comfort level with soloing... for me it is actually harder to work with pre-made adventures (but that's just me!). Whatever you decide, I think you will enjoy the system and the world. (I will say--as I did in this vid--that there is *a lot* of world-building in the book I bought. That could be a bit overwhelming, or something you'd just skip, and it's the first 67 pages of the book I have.) In case this helps, here's how it breaks down: 1-71 is the world of symbaroum, including detailed descriptions of places and factions with descriptions of possible NPCs (but no stats for them). part 2 is the player's guide (pp. 72-165); part 3 is GM guide (pp. 166-235); part 4 is an adventure (pp. 236-256 or so); an appendix with artifacts and location. There is a discussion in the GM guide about generating adventures but no "adventure generator." If you are looking for lots of random tables, you won't find too many here.

@@GeekGamers01 Thank you for the break down , also ive been inspired by the way you use Scarlet heroes, which ive solo 'd several times , im thinking of going with the Core book and using SH for its wonderful table generators . Im excited about Symbaroum , thanks again !

I believe a starter set has been released since I made this vid.

Time stamp? I don’t recall using a second book & scrolled thru & don’t see where you are referring

Sure, it was at 21:25 @@GeekGamers01

That’s the Tome of Adventure Design. I feature it in this video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/b61yg7eWyJu4inU.htmlsi=mFN0SUoVD5hUiazC

Many thanks... That's quite some Tome!

I demo the technique in a number of vids on the channel (and I can't remember all of them), but I first introduce it in the "Easy Ways to be Your Own GM" vid, around 17:41: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/b61yg7eWyJu4inU.html

@@GeekGamers01 Thanxxx !!!!

Of Symbaroum? I don’t have plans for another vid on this system.

@@GeekGamers01 Yeah, there's a lot out for it now. There's also a starter set. That's okay, I can find more out about them. Thanks for covering the core rulebook.

@Markus Geiger Generally speaking, I don't accept game submissions for reviews. If/when you have a BGG listing or some other public information about the game you can point me to that and I'll be happy to take a look and see if it seems like a fit for the channel.
