    #41 [SPOTLIGHT] - Beetle Knight by Brooklet Games

    Hello and Welcome Back to the Solo RolePlayers Podcast.  Today on the show we are trying something a little different as I present to you this fantastic bug sized role playing game. This game is our months highlight for the topic: free/affordable games.  If you want to hear the full extended 90 min [ACTUAL PLAY] and the full hour long [INTERVIEW] with Jim Hall, you can join up as a FREE member over on the SoloRolePlayers Patreon and listen over there. You can check out Beetle Knight over at Brooklet Games for one of the beautiful hand made copies (which I highly recommend) or head over to Itch.io for the PWYW digital/printable version. The format of this episode was a bit of a spontaneous experiment. Its not something I'm going to do all the time but I had a lot of fun putting it together but I'm too close to it to tell how well it holds together. If you wouldn't mind, take a moment to send me a quick email to soloroleplayerspodcast@gmail.com to let me know what you think. Hope you enjoy! -PJ   You can get in touch with me on: soloroleplayerspodcast@gmail.com, PJSack on Reddit/Bluesky or better yet join the SoloRolePlayers Patreon where a free membership will get you access to the community chat and my public newsletters   At the SoloRolePlayers Tier you get at least 1 (usually its 2) bonus episodes a month where I continue playing through the games introduced on the show, a regular bookclub/gameclub meet-up, access to the discord, and connect with celebrity guests.   You can leave me a voice mail with questions, ideas, experiences or just to say g’day at https://www.speakpipe.com/SoloRolePlayers   Links & Recs If you like this show you might like to check out the podcast that started it all, my Fallout Narrative Solo-RPG Audio Drama A Wasteland Story   Creators that helped me discover this weird and wonderful hobby: Man Alone Boardgames with Thomas - Fallout Series Geek Gamers The Dungeon Dive Lords of the Dungeon (The Secret Cabal) Girls Who Don’t DnD Me Myself & Die   Reading Materials that helped me figure out what the hell I am doing: Mythic GM Emulator 2E Solo Game Masters Guide - geekgamer   Music and Sound Effects in this series are credited to: Epidemic Sound
