What it is about
What we have here is a method for playing premade adventures for your favorite RPG system in Solo mode, in a way that fully respects the text of the adventure itself.
This method does not use oracles or master simulators; only the adventure text and a lot of courage (and a little luck).
It is done through a method somewhat similar to video games, and the objective is to reach the end of each stage of the adventure and finally complete it by winning each challenge that it presents. Ready-made adventures are among the coolest materials ever produced in the history of our beloved hobby, roleplaying games.
I have to confess that I love reading ready-made adventures. I have always read them as if it were literature. Many times, I read just to know all the story . I did this with many 5th edition adventures (yes, from THAT RPG).
For a long time, however, reading these adventures was all I could really do. Often there was no group, other times the group existed, but was not interested. I've lived half of my role-playing gamer life in a rural town of 7000 inhabitants, it wasn't always easy to find ways to play it.
Everything, of course, changed when I discovered the solo RPG.
