This was packed full of interesting content! I’ve never heard of depth crawls. So great. A funny thing about reading your newsletter after being a longtime listener of The Lost Bay is that can almost hear you narrating the text. It’s like an audiobook in reverse! Thanks again for interviewing me.
Haha that's funny, yeah this happens to me too, when I read books from folks I've interviewed. Thanks for taking the time to answer the interview, your newsletter is great, and solo games deserve more visibility!
Great stuff, really enjoyed your thoughts on the different kinds of crawls! Love the idea of your love of point crawls being inspired by childhood exploration. Those places become more fascinating to me as I get older, as they seem further away and more like a dream.
And interesting to see you speculate about the potential uses of depth crawls. It does feel like we've only just begun to scratch the surface if what they can be used for.
Hey Lone, thank you so much, yes I'm fascinated by depth crawls, the whole find freedom where you don't have control paradigm, some kind freedom as opposed to tactical agency
Good read.
I just started what will be a series on hex crawls with my latest post...next I’ll add depth to the setting with a few strategies and NPCs etc.
Just started following you thanks for the cool content (I bought the wicked wanderers thing, that’s yours right?)
Hey thanks! Oh yeah that's me, thanks for supporting the bundle!
