Walked unsuspectingly into the downstairs bathroom only to get the fright of my life as a humanoid figure loomed out of the darkness at me.

It was the dress dummy that usually lives in the hall. Mom had moved it in there due to imminent vacuuming and didn't think to tell anyone. "I didn't think it would be a problem if it was in there for a few hours - I guess I usually do that after you leave for work."

This is not the morning I wanted.

I had honestly been having a pretty crabby morning and then I remembered that the Starforged kickstarter launched today. And now I'm reading through the preview edition that's available for backers and, you guys, this game looks so fucking cool, oh my god. I am now in a much better mood.

Starforged is a solo* scifi rpg written by the same person who wrote Ironsworn - it's basically Ironsworn in space. Ironsworn is definitely my favorite solo rpg - it's possibly my favorite rpg in general. I love my ongoing Ironsworn game and I am so extremely stoked to start playing Starforged as well.

It looks like you can basically start play with the preview edition, too - it doesn't contain everything, but the basics are all present. Now I have to figure out what kinds of space adventures I'm most interested in having.

(PS - the digital version of Ironsworn is free and if you want a really excellent solo game, you should definitely check it out.)





*You can play both Starforged and Ironsworn collaboratively also, either with a GM or without, but the games are written with an assumption of solo play.
