Eleven solo games have been very kindly donated by Kiwi RPG creators for you to play during this round. Choices range from the cosy adventures of a baby pūkeko on a marae, to something more mature, like a freshly turned vampire trying to save their maker. Perhaps you'd like to map the office on your first day of corporate hell—I mean life—or would you rather wander a magical tower while earning the trust of its occupants? Some are short and won't take long to play while others might take a couple of hours.

Sero (she/they), the facilitator, will provide the games and have supplies on hand—things like dice, playing cards, and notepaper. They will introduce you to the games, provide assistance, answer questions or chat about solo games and the like.

List of possible Solo RPGs available during this round might include:

• L-inked
• Two Graves
• Fresh Blood
• The Bog Eternal
• Bog Body, Watching
• Corporate Onboarding
• The Tower in the Meadow
• You're Going to Your Ideal Wetland
• Na te Puhipa - Your Dear Friend Busby
• It is a Beautiful Day on the Marae and You are a Baby Pūkeko
• It is a Beautiful Day in the Wetland and You are a Horrible Bittern

What are Solo RPGs?

Solo RPGs are tabletop games designed for just one person. You don't need a Game Master or others, instead you can play on your own, using mechanics like random tables, oracles, journaling prompts, etc, to guide the story and gameplay. Some can be played with good ole' dice, while others utilise different mechanics, like drawing playing cards, flipping coins or using a tumbling block tower.

Once again Games on Demand will be a thing.

Essentially a small team of highly trained experts, each with a certain set of skills will offer a veritable panoply of possibilities.

Games are not usually set in advance, instead we read the room and offer the games we feel like, or have been requested to run. They can run the gamut from intricate D&D style games through to silly parody TV show creation, exploration with cute animal characters or twisted horror.

There's always a fine selection with several different options available each round. Give it a whirl if you aren't sure what you will be in the mood for on the day or you are hoping to persuade one of our MC's to run that game you heard about but never quite got the chance to play in.

I'll try to update this list as I hear back from people and make up my own mind but at the moment offerings will include:

Judge Dredd (the 1984 Games Workshop version)
Monsterhearts
Rapscallion
Fight with Spirit
Jiangshi
Arkham Horror
