What are your favorite board games? Me and my friends love playing board games, but I get the feeling their tired of playing the same things. What do you guys usually play? My favorite board game of all time is HeroQuest. I never get tired of playing it. Also love Catan, Arkham Horror, Betrayal House on the Hill, Spyfall (great at parties)

    For solo RPG? The standard suggestion nowadays is Ironsworn to be honest. And it’s free! I wasn’t a big fan at the beginning, so I started with Scarlet Heroes, it has everything you need to play pretty much any OSR game.

    Then there are lots of specific games for solo, especially journaling games. Or using game master emulators you can play almost anything (Mythic GME is the most famous for a good reason).

    What would you like to try? I’m quite new on this area but I might be able to suggest a couple of books. There are a lot of tools available to play anything available in the market.

      I was thinking more solo board games – I have roughly no TTRPG experience, though I’d be willing to try. (I last played D&D probably 20 years ago in high school. It was one of those things that I felt I was supposed to be into, but, when push came to shove, it wasn’t my jam. Now, that was also true of computer games and I like some now.)
