#EK #Narrative #SoloRPGs

One of the recurring questions I come back to time and time again is 📚 How can stories be told in mixed media ways? I've always loved “choose your own adventure” books, and naratively driven video games. Something about the branching alternatives is more involved than straight prose (or a linear TV show/movie for that matter), and I like that sense of exploration and agency.

I've only dabbled in table top role playing games (TTRPGs) and board games (I like going at my own pace), but have always been curious about D&D and other such games where you create the world you have your narrative experience in. Recently I learnt about solo rpgs, which are broadly TTRPGs but for solo players. This has really quipped my interest – it might let me explore a narrative with agency, in a non-screen tactile form?

Currently building a website to be my long-term digital home, but once this is done I might write up a deep-dive into solo RPGs to see what these are about.
