After the holiday period, a time of hustle, bustle, and honestly just too many people, I'm about ready for a month of quiet solo RPGs to soothe my soul. There are some fantastic new releases in the space, a lot of which are either free to download and play, or pretty darn cheap considering the hours of creative fun you'll be getting.
If you're not one for solo RPGs, I get it. Some people are just more social. But these might finally make you reconsider your need for chatter with their fantastic artwork, clear and clever systems, and prompts that will get you thinking about all kinds of deep and surreal subjects. These games have really piqued my interest this year, and when all you want is to be alone with your imagination, you can bet the journaling RPG experience will rival any of the best tabletop RPGs in terms of tranquil brilliance.
