Hello and Welcome Back to The Solo RolePlayers Podcast.

It is the end of my biggest year as a SoloRolePlayer and I just wanted to jump on the mic today to chat a little bit about what a year it was, and some of the games that stood out to me throughout. 

I hope you enjoy.

Hello and Welcome Back to the Solo RolePlayers Podcast.

Today on the show I got a hot little game to the table, known to some as Kal-Arath. This affordable, old school, small foot-printed little gem is great for short (or long) sessions on the go or at home.

Hope you enjoy the actual play of Kal-Arath.
