Episode 6: Delve: A Solo Map Drawing RPG by Anna Blackwell
Welcome to Die Alone: a Solo RPG Podcast! Each week I’ll be playing a different solo roleplaying game and talking about my experiences the following episode. I’ll also occasionally dabble in solo tabletop games and adventure gamebooks. I’ll be looking at the games as a play experience, as a meditative and creative exercise and also looking at them from a designer and artist viewpoint.
In Episode 06 of Die Alone, I talk about playing the solo map drawing RPG:
Delve by Anna Blackwell
DELVE puts you in control of a dwarven stronghold from its first strike into the ground through to its glory or demise. Along the way you'll face flooding and lava, gas and ghouls, ancient monstrosities and weirder still.
The core zine has rules for:
Making a unique dwarven hold
Generating special artefacts and ancient monstrosities
Facing ghouls and goblins, draugr and dragons in lightweight tactical combat
You can get Delve on their WEBSITE or Itch.io
You can adjust and print your own grids HERE
You can also get a custom map I drew for the game on our Patreon Page.

Next Week: Four Against Darkness
Four Against Darkness is a solitaire dungeon-delving game that may also be played cooperatively. No miniatures are needed. All you need is this book, a pencil, two dice, and grid paper. Choose four characters from a list of classic types (warrior, wizard, rogue, halfling, dwarf, barbarian, cleric, elf), equip them, and venture into dungeons created by dice rolls and your own choices. You will fight monsters, manage resources, grab treasure, dodge traps, find clues, and even accept quests from the monsters themselves. Your characters will level up, becoming more powerful with each game... IF THEY SURVIVE.
You can get Four Against Darkness on Amazon or Drivethru RPG
