Amazing band, one of the best gigs I've gone to this year.

I always liked the Monty Python one, and want to try the pirates themed one. Fluxx games are really fun indeed.

UK maybe?

Depending on what I am looking for:

• BBC Radio 6: mainly new stuff, although I have been surprised with very good oldies.
• The newsletter To the teeth for all things metal https://totheteeth.substack.com/ The playlist in spotify is really good too.
• Last.fm, even if it's not as used anymore, I still find very good recommendations there.
• Spotify Discovery playlist has surprised me a lot in the past, but not that much lately. It suggests me what I was in the mood to listen to last week, maybe not that much today. The daily mixes are fine, but it's pushing the same songs too much.
• The website https://1001albumsgenerator.com even if I am not a fan of some genres, it's good to learn about some records.

From this same thread I am sure I will use https://www.gnoosic.com in the future.

Or just the website if you can't support the developers https://goblin.tools/ No need to install anything, it works great using the browser.

I found about it not long ago (also because my partner suggested it: "you may like this - Like? I love it!)

I can't pick just one band, however, I clearly remember the first time I listened to

• Black metal as a genre
• Aphex Twin
• Aenima by Tool
• Traversee by Year of no light
• Black Sabbath
• Industrial Rock in general and Downward Spiral by Nine Inch Nails in particular
• Hyperballad by Björk

I'm sure there are more if I think for longer.

It was really good to be honest.

That's a pretty good point. Time to read it again! (and this time I'll play it)

Mausritter is a mix of some easy systems, very "kid friendly", it actually won some awards because of it. The Tiny D6 systems are also good and easy to learn: two dice, if you have an attribute that helps, use three.

It depends on the amount of roleplay vs journaling you would like to try. My first try was with D100 and Four against the Darkness, but they were closer to a boardgame from my point of view. After that I tried Scarlet Heroes, one of the best solo rules and tables to play any classic DND game. Or anything, the tables and oracles can be used in a lot of different games. Now, the standard suggestion is Ironsworn because it's great and easy to play (although the book is big, everything is variations of one move). OH, did I mention it's free?

And then you can find Mythic GME 2ed, probably the best tool available to play any TTRPG solo. It's really worth it, but there are others easier to understand (I'd suggest One Page Solo Engine).

It depends on what you'd like to play: What setting? Where would you put the focus? More throwing dice? More journaling? Adventures? Epic fantasy? Sci-fi?

I started with no TTRPG experience at all around a year ago. There are some games (like D100 or Four Against Darkness) closer to a boardgame than an actual TTRPG. You throw dice and go with the results, no need to roleplay.

Regarding solo boardgames, I would say games where you play alone together, like each player doing it's own thing in the board with minimal interaction or minimal rules modifications. Spirit Island already mentioned is one great example, Cartographers, Sprawlopolis or Agropolis, Resist!, One deck dungeon... seriously, there is an amazing amount of options depending on your taste (deck building, throwing dice, etc.).
