In this whimsically 135th episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down podcast, Tom and Quinns chat about a number of single-player pen-and-paper map-drawing/journal-making role-playing games - or ‘Solo RPGs’, for short. We’ll be digging deep into Delve, thinking back to Field Guide To Memory, and shooting upwards to be Alone Among The Stars, each game a new designer and a new direction.
Have a lovely weekend, everybody!
There are two good ways to create engagement in a board game: One is to let the player feel like they're achieving something constantly, the other is to keep them feeling like any wrong move could tank their game. We're dubbing this the "thriving to barely surviving" spectrum, but first, we need to figure out where some of our favourite games fit on it. Before we surthrive, we talk about Carnegie, Divvy Dice, and Underwater Cities.
03:56 - Carnegie 13:11 - Divvy Dice 20:56 - Underwater Cities 24:26 - Terraforming Mars 32:23 - The "Thriving to Barely Surviving" Spectrum 33:10 - Agricola 33:43 - A Feast for Odin 37:34 - Troyes 42:12 - Through the Ages: A New Story of Civilization 43:03 - Scythe 43:55 - Tapestry 45:20 - In the Year of the Dragon 45:52 - Macao 46:43 - The Castles of Burgundy 47:41 - Bruges 48:02 - The Oracle of Delphi 49:00 - Splendor 49:55 - Root 51:36 - Food Chain Magnate 55:12 - The Estates 56:00 - Biblios
