In this episode of the (now world famous) Man Alone After Dark (world's first and only SoloRPG talk show), we look at five games that have "pick up play" aka SOLO FAST LANE potential. Not only do we look at them, I then learn and play them ON CAMERA (don't worry, the part where I read and learn them is fast forwarded with fun music overlayed on top). All five of these games are something special and I am excited to show you what I love about each of them! (links below)
BUT THAT'S NOT ALL!!! We also:
- Celebrate 10k followers!
- Show of my MERCH STORE!! (manalone.creator-spring.com/?utm_medium=product_shelf&utm_source=youtube) [use promo code FIRSTMOVER between now and June 15th for 10% off!]
- Check the Man Alone Voicemail
- Add an additional prize for the "Leave a VM for Man Alone" contest
- Check out AlienRPG: Evolved Solo Play!
- Share a BOOT LOAD of other FAST LANE RPGs
