I’ve yet to really wade into the waters of solo-play on this level. I’ve really only played solo Cthulhu scenarios with the numbered entries. Solo play is a bit intimidating but I appreciate when folks lay it out like this.

Don’t be intimidated! It’s so much fun. My suggestion is to start out with a simple game and then advance to some of the more advanced games if you find that you really like playing solo. I use easy to understand Oracles too. Some of the games I play solo-Four against Darkness, Cairn, The Walking Dead RPG, Hostile. There’s so many easy independent games on Itchio too to get you started. 😊

Great post. My solo game is also Shadowdark. Putting myself through The citadel of the scarlet Minotaur at the moment on fantasy grounds vtt and it works really well. I have been using the same rules as you except the chaos factor which after reading this i might add in too.

I'd love to know how you like the chaos factor, it might be a bit nuts ar higher levels. I am planning to try some scenarios out with it up there to see how it feels
