This is the first episode in a new series called ‘The Journey of One’ in which I’ll cover solo role-playing games of all types, be it complex full-system RPG’s or be it smaller indie journaling games. This is all about the love for single player storytelling, role-playing and simply having a good time.

In the inaugural episode of the series, we’ll be looking at Alone Among the Stars by Takuma Okada. As explained by the author the game is a tabletop roleplaying game about exploring space and experiencing wondrous sights. To explore the vast universe all you need is a standard deck of 52 cards, a d6 die and something to write with and write on, be it a word document or a pen and paper.

Are you ready to learn more and explore new planets? Visit Alone Among the Stars on itch and download the copy of a game yourself: https://noroadhome.itch.io/alone-among-the-stars

For those of you who’ll go through the review there’s a special something. A mini audio-drama based on my very own adventures with the game. Listen and see what mysteries the vast dark universe has to offer!

Hello everyone!

In this mini-sode I'm talking about one of my favourite (if not favourite) party games that I currently hold in my collection. Cockroach Poker is a simple card game that has very little in terms of poker rules, but holds significantly more similarities in terms of bluffing. Will you be able to lie your way out of collecting the creepy crawlies?


Whether you have a group of friends who enjoy board games, or you are looking to introduce some new friends into the beautiful world of our hobby, Cockroach Poker might be the game that you've been looking for. With low price and lots of fun that can be explained in less than a minute, it's a perfect starter game for any evening!

The legendary drow ranger Drizzt Do’Urden is coming to life on your tabletop in this review of Legend of Drizzt by Wizards Of the Coast. Whether it is the adventurers lifestyle, the unexplored underdark or simply life of adventure for which the Dungeons & Dragons is well known for, the board game brings you 'a fraction' of the experience. 

But does it mean the game is lacking? Does it mean it does not deserve a place on your shelf?

Listen to this episode and find out why despite it's flaws the game is very deserving of your time!

Hello fellow board gamers!

First of all massive apologies for sudden disappearance but certain work-related and life-related things had me sidetracked for a decent amount of time and with the current pandemic things are different for all of us.

The good news is! WE’RE BACK and today it’s an interesting episode as we are looking at a new entrant on the market Trapped – Escape Room Game Pack. With this really well-priced pack you can get a taste of puzzle-solving escape-room like fun without leaving your house :D  What’s more to want!?

If you ever wanted to give it a go but didn’t want to break your bank or simply weren’t sure if it’s your thing before investing time and money into a real escape room this simple yet effective alternative will give you a test of the fun for a fraction of the price. I’ve had the pleasure of playing the hardest level difficulty one on my birthday and if you want to learn more on whether it was as fun as it sounds, listen to this episode and find out!

Thanks for listening and as always come back in 2 weeks time for the next episode as we’re back and coming strong!
