One of the greatest parts of solo roleplaying (SoloRPG) as a way to play Dungeons & Dragons is the solo podcast storytelling that has grown out of it.
Here are 4 amazing story-telling podcasts where the dice are in control and even the creator doesn’t know what will happen.
The Iron Realm
Listen | Website | Twitter | Patreon
Experience the Fantasy more deeply than ever before…
From the very first moment, listeners are plunged headlong into a Dark Fantasy Dungeon beyond all imagining. All other worlds have fallen. This is The Infinite Maze. This is The Iron Realm.
Accompanied by a compelling musical score, heart-pounding sound effects, and dramatic narration by The Maze Master himself, the listener is no longer separate anymore from the dread of the mega-dungeon, now completely immersed into the dreaded nightmare – with a dramatic audio experience that can never be forgotten or ignored.
Be forewarned, Traveller! The Iron Realm is intended for adult audiences. Listener discretion is advised.
Tale of the Manticore
Listen | Website | Twitter | DTRPG
Tale of the Manticore is a hybrid between a dark fantasy audio drama and a solo D&D RPG. The dice make all the important decisions and, as a writer, my job is to interpret them and tell their story. Part fiction, part game, it’s the story where ”Chaos rolls.”
Legend of the Bones
A hybrid of dark fantasy audio drama and old school solo Dungeons & Dragons.
Stories from the First Watch
Welcome to Stories from the First Watch. This is both a solo roleplaying game and an experiment in audio storytelling. The story, and the characters’ actions, will unfold upon the roll of the dice. Once the game starts, nothing is predetermined. The dice are in control.
Legends from The Fireside
A Sword & Sorcery, hybrid storytelling podcast. Old School D&D goodness, victim and benefactor of the dice.
Swords Against Madness
Swords against madness is a gonzo solo fantasy / storytelling podcast. Strap on your three bladed sword, get comfortable in your studded leather kirtle or chainmail bikini, and fire up the wizard van. It’s time to get weird.
Echoes of Eshaton
Listen | Website | Twitter | Ko-Fi
Echoes of Eshaton is a solo play RPG podcast set in the apocalyptic Degenesis universe. Grit, gore, and a glimmer of hope.
